Analysis of Impact Hammer Rebound to Estimate Rock Drillability
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the piston rebound common to both the Schmidt Impact Hammer and downhole hammer drills has been analyzed and calculated by means of stress wave theory and the energy conservation law. A quantitative relationship between the amount of rebound of the piston and the impact resistance index, or hardness of the rock, has been established. Those analytical results will not only be of bene®t in acquiring a deep understanding of the usable range and condition of the Schmidt Impact Hammer, but also provide a de®nite answer to the feasibility of using the hammer rebound in drills with down-hole hammer tool to carry out a real time measurement of the nature of the formation under the bit.

متن کاملApplication of Schmidt rebound number for estimating rock strength under specific geological conditions
A literature review revealed that most of the empirical equations introduced for determination of the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks based on the Schmidt hammer rebound number (N) are not sufficiently reliable mostly due to the relatively low coefficient of correlations. This is attributed to the fact that in most cases one formula is used for all types of rocks, altho...

With its portable, simple and affordable attributes, the Schmidt hammer (SH) is an ideal index apparatus, which underlies its increasing popularity and expanding range of applications. The SH rebound hardness value (R) is perhaps the most frequently used index in rock mechanics practice for estimating the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and the modulus of elasticity (E) of intact rock both ...

Rotary drills, diamond drills and percussive drills have been extensively used in open pits, quarries and construction sites. The prediction of the penetration rate of drilling machines is very important in the cost estimation and the planning of the rock excavation projects. The rock modulus ratio, which is the ratio of elastic modulus to compressive strength, indicating the deformability, is ...
