Figure 4. Plots showing the scattered relationship of peak particle velocities to
various expressions of yield. (a) Peak P-wave particle velocity on the
vertical component in the 48-Hz band as a function of total explosive
yield. (b) Peak P-wave particle velocity on the vertical component in
the 48-Hz band as a function of average explosive per borehole. (c) Peak
Rg/Lg particle velocity on the verticle component in the
48-Hz band as a function of average explosive per borehole. (d) Peak
P-wave particle velocity on the vertical component in the 48-Hz
band as a function of average spalled mass per borehole.
