The Ultrasonic/Sonic Driller/Corer (USDC) as a Subsurface Drill, Sampler and Lab-On-A-Drill for Planetary Exploration Applications
The search for existing or past life in the Universe is one of the most important objectives of NASA’s mission. For this purpose, effective instruments that can sample and conduct in-situ astrobiology analysis are being sought. In support of this objective, a novel Ultrasonic/Sonic Driller/Corer (USDC) based mechanism has been developed to probe and sample rocks, ice and soil. The USDC consists...
متن کاملAuto-Gopher - a wire-line rotary-hammer ultrasonic drill
Developing technologies that would enable NASA to sample rock, soil, and ice by coring, drilling or abrading at a significant depth is of great importance for a large number of in-situ exploration missions as well as for earth applications. Proven techniques to sample Mars subsurface will be critical for future NASA astrobiology missions that will search for records of past and present life on ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Design and Manufacturing Support Tool for Optimization of Ultrasonic Machining (USM) and Rotary USM
Ultrasonic machining (USM) is a mechanical material removal process used to erode holes and cavities in hard or brittle work pieces by using shaped tools, high-frequency and an abrasive slurry. This paper addresses the concept and development of an expert system (ES) for hard and brittle material, such as glass, quartz, diamond, carbides, semi conducting materials, ceramic and graphite which ca...

متن کاملSingle Piezo-Actuator Rotary-Hammering (SPaRH) Drill
The search for present or past life in the Universe is one of the most important objectives of NASA’s exploration missions. Drills for subsurface sampling of rocks, ice and permafrost are an essential tool for astrobiology studies on other planets. Increasingly, it is recognized that drilling via a combination of rotation and hammering offers an efficient and effective rapid penetration mechani...
