Blasting vibration could cause dynamic instability of rock masses within a critical steady state. To control the blasting vibration, it is necessary to understand the complete dynamic response process of the rock masses under the blasting vibration. The Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) technique uses blast monitoring data to predict the full waveform of the blast vibration. Based on the LSTM, a new full waveform prediction model is proposed in this study. To verify the feasibility of the proposed model, the sample data were constructed using the well-known linear blast wave superposition prediction formula. The full waveform prediction model is trained and the predicted waveform and the actual waveform are then evaluated and compared. The loss function is calculated and discussed, which verifies the feasibility of the prediction method. In addition to the numerical research, the actual blasting vibration data are also used for verification. The parameters, such as sequence size, training algorithm, and some hidden layer nodes, are discussed and optimized. The results show that the proposed full waveform prediction model based on LSTM can predict the full blasting waveform. This study provides a new idea for the prediction and control of blasting vibration.

Underground mining operations face increasing challenges due to their complex and hazardous environments. One key difficulty is ensuring real-time safety monitoring and disaster prevention. Traditional monitoring systems often suffer from delayed data acquisition and rely heavily on cloud-based processing. These factors limit their responsiveness during emergencies. To address these limitations, this study presents an underground Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring system based on edge computing. The system architecture is composed of three layers: a perception layer for real-time sensing, an edge gateway layer for local data processing and decision-making, and a cloud service layer for storage and analytics. By shifting computation closer to the data source, the system significantly reduces latency and enhances response efficiency. The system is tailored to actual mine-site conditions. It integrates pressure monitoring for artificial expandable pillars and roof subsidence detection in stopes. It has been successfully deployed in a field environment, and the data collected during commissioning demonstrate the system’s feasibility and reliability. Results indicate that the proposed system meets real-world demands for underground safety monitoring. It enables timely warnings and improves the overall automation level. This approach offers a practical and scalable solution for enhancing mine safety and provides a valuable reference for future smart mining systems.
