Rock fragmentation and optimization of drilling tools
In this chapter possibilities of the improvement of drilling tool efficiency on the basis of the analysis of mechanisms of rock destruction and some methods of the information theory are considered. Physical mechanisms of destruction of hard and plastic rocks under different conditions of mechanical loading are reviewed. Some physical effects which allow to improve the efficiency of rock drilli...
متن کاملIdentifying crack initiation and propagation thresholds in brittle rock
Recent work at the Underground Research Laboratory of Atomic Energy of Canada Limited in Pinawa, Manitoba, has shown that high compressive stresses near the tunnel face significantly contribute to the loss of strength, and eventual failure of the rock, through stress-induced brittle fracturing. A program of laboratory testing has been undertaken to investigate the effects of brittle fracture on...
متن کاملA real-time analysis of rock fragmentation using UAV technology
Accurate measurement of blast-induced rock fragmentation is of great importance for many mining operations. The post-blast rock size distribution can significantly influence the efficiency of all the downstream mining and comminution processes. Image analysis methods are one of the most common methods used to measure rock fragment size distribution in mines regardless of criticism for lack of a...
متن کاملFragmentation of wall rock garnets during deep crustal earthquakes
Fractures and faults riddle the Earth's crust on all scales, and the deformation associated with them is presumed to have had significant effects on its petrological and structural evolution. However, despite the abundance of directly observable earthquake activity, unequivocal evidence for seismic slip rates along ancient faults is rare and usually related to frictional melting and the formati...
متن کاملExperimental and Numerical Investigation of Rock Dynamic Fracture
Rapid development of engineering activities expands through a variety of rock engineering processes such as drilling, blasting, mining and mineral processing. These activities require rock dynamic fracture mechanics method to characterize the rock behavior. Dynamic fracture toughness is an important parameter for the analysis of engineering structures under dynamic loading. Several experimental...
