Alpha-Blast Signature Analysis and Vibration Simulation Software Version 11

White was the first company to offer a commercially available program for analyzing the probable effects of blast timing on amplitude and frequency. If you use or test electronic detonators, the Alpha-Blast program could be the most important software package you have. As detonation times become more accurate, it will be necessary to have sophisticated software that will help determine the best delay designs to achieve the desired results involving vibration control.

Alpha-Blast proved to be effective with pyrotechnic detonators for many years. With the advent of electronic detonators the program has involved into a necessary addition in order to help optimize the use of these products.

Alpha-Blast V11 once again proves why it is the world leader in signature analysis software. V11 includes the ability to enter historical vibration data which allows the program to scale simulations based on actual site measurements. This results in more accurate amplitude predictions. The program also includes statistical regression analysis with custom confidence intervals and the ability to filter the data that is analyzed. As before, simulations can be saved for use in the powerful Seismograph Data Analysis software V10 and higher. No other signature analysis software package can even begin to offer these features for the equivalent low cost.

Alpha-Blast V11 is a stand-alone software package. An authorization and yearly license code is required. Contact White or an authorized reseller to receive a quote or purchase Alpha-Blast V11.
