In this research, finite element analysis of the conventional drilling and vibration assisted drilling is carried out. The ABAQUS software is employed for FE analysis. The Johnson-Cook models for both plastic deformation and damage are employed for FE simulation.The results of the FE analysis are then verified with experimental results in both conventional and vibration assisted drilling on Al ...

The aim of this investigation is to devise a robust detection method for drill bit break-through when drilling into long bones using an automated drilling system that is associated with mechatronic assisted surgery. This investigation looks into the effects of system compliance and inherent drilling force fluctuation on the profiles of drilling force, drilling force, drilling between successive...

Due to the shortcomings of the traditional drilling way, as well as the complexity and difficult mathematical model of the drilling process, etc, this paper briefly analyses the principle of auto-drilling system on AC frequency conversion and the relationship among all factors that affects on the auto-drilling and puts forward a technology that combines parameters' self-tuning fuzzy control wit...

– World wide drilling is developing for oil, gas or water resources. Electric motors power 75% of the total drilling rigs installation, augmenting to 95% for the case of Romania. Monitoring diesel generators micro-power station and motors of the rig is the second important thing to do and complete the main task of drilling process monitoring. This paper describe a monitoring and control system ...

Drilling samples of lunar soil is an important and indispensable part of China’s lunar exploration project. The drill bit temperature during the drilling process is one of the key concerns for scholars, especially for the hard lunar rock drilling in vacuum. In this article, the simulation analysis of drilling in atmosphere and vacuum is conducted. Moreover, a fiber grating temperature measuring...

NIOSH continues to conduct respirable dust control research for surface mine blasthole drilling operations. Research areas have included testing variables (shroud leakage area, drill deck cross-sectional area, shroud height, collector-to-bailing airflow ratio, etc.) that have the most impact on respirable dust control, development of a dust collector inlet hood, development of a dust collector ...
