In an open‐pit mine slope, rock mass has multiple joint structures and blasting operations have an obvious influence on its stability. Therefore, accurately predicting the blasting vibration is necessary to ensure slope stability. In this study, the blasting vibration signals monitored at a blasting site with different rock masses were used to investigate the attenuation characteristics of blasting vibration through the peak particle velocity (PPV), frequency characteristics, and energy distribution of the blasting vibration signals analyzed with the time‐frequency processing method. The results demonstrated that the main vibration frequency of the blasting vibration of dolomite was wider than that of shale, and these main vibration frequencies occurred at 25 kHz and 14 kHz for dolomite and shale, respectively, at a distance of 50 m from the blast area to the vibration monitoring point. With an increase in the distance from 50 m to 200 m, the main vibration frequencies decreased to less than 5 Hz. With increasing joint degree, the attenuation rate of the vibration velocity and energy attenuation of the blasting vibration increase, indicating that the structural parameters of the rock mass (such as the number of joints) have a significant impact on the attenuation law of blasting vibration. Furthermore, a modified equation that can be used for predicting PPV was developed by considering the effect of the number of joints in the rock mass on the blasting vibration. For the same ground vibration readings, the correlation factor increased from 0.8 to 0.85 for the Nicholls‐USBM equation and the modified equation, respectively. The PPV of blasting under different rock masses of the Baideng open‐pit phosphorite mine was used to verify the modified equation. The results show that a modified equation can be used for predicting the PPV of blasting engineering in the Baideng phosphorite mine and that the prediction accuracy is acceptable.

Due to the influence of deep high stress, geothermal heat, and other factors, the law of desorption of methane in coal seams is more complicated in the process of mining deep coal seams, which is prone to methane over‐limit, coal and gas outburst, and other accidents. In order to study the desorption characteristics of coalbed methane under different loading and temperature conditions, the desorption tests at different deformation stages of coal containing methane were carried out in the process of loading‐adsorption‐desorption‐reloading until the coal sample was destroyed by using the seepage‐adsorption‐desorption test system on coal and rock mass, and the test programs were different combinations of gas pressure 1.2 MPa, two kinds of confining pressure, and three kinds of temperature. The results show that the cumulative methane desorption amount corresponding to each deformation stage presents a convex parabolic increase trend with the increase in desorption time, while the desorption rate presents a power function decay trend. Under the condition of the same desorption time, the cumulative methane desorption amount from large to small is residual deformation stage, compaction stage, near the peak stress, plastic deformation stage, and elastic deformation stage. Under the same confining pressure, temperature, and methane pressure, the maximum desorption rate from large to small is residual deformation stage, near the peak stress, plastic deformation stage, compaction stage, and elastic deformation stage. The desorption and diffusion of methane are promoted under the higher temperature and lower confining pressure, which presents a certain mechanism of promoting desorption. The thermal movement of methane molecules is intensified with the increase in temperature, and the adsorption effect between methane molecules and the molecules at the surface of the coal is weakened. The cumulative methane desorption amount and the maximum desorption rate increase with the increase in temperature. The cumulative methane desorption in the residual deformation stage is obviously greater than that in other deformation stages. The increase in confining pressure inhibits the development and expansion of pore fractures in raw coal specimen and hinders the increase in the effective desorption surface area. The cumulative methane desorption amount and the maximum desorption rate decrease with the increase in confining pressure.
