Paper presented at the 57th U.S. Rock Mechanics/Geomechanics Symposium, June 25–28, 2023
Paper Number: ARMA-2023-0637
... ABSTRACT The application of conicl PDC teeth to vibratory percussion drilling technology is expected to break deep hard rock efficiently and improve drilling efficiency. In this paper, the characteristics of conicl diamond tooth cutting and hard rock under percussion are investigated. Firstly...

Paper Number: ARMA-2019-0210
...1. INTRODUCTION Unlike metals, rocks are brittle and fracture without significant plastic deformation prior to failure. Rocks have also a large ratio of compressive to tensile strength, known colloquially as a high brittleness index. This makes hard rocks, extraordinarily weaker under tensile...

...1. INTRODUCTION Currently, most of the soft ground tunnels and a significant portion of the mountainous tunnels are constructed using tunnel boring machines (TBMs) worldwide. TBMs are generally classified as hard rock and soft ground ones. The soft ground TBMs are also called as shield machines...

.... The Particle Flow Code (PFC), a simulation code based on the distinct element method (DEM), is an effective numerical tool for simulating the failure process of hard rock [1]. By introducing the contact- and parallel-bond and clumped particle model [2], the code has become better able to express the brittle...
