Full and half-wavelength ultrasonic percussive drills [PDF]
Ultrasonic-percussive drills are a leading technology for small rock drilling applications where power and weight-on-bit are at a premium. The concept uses ultrasonic vibrations to excite an oscillatory motion in a free-mass, which then delivers ...

An experimental study on the CO2/sand dry-frac process
The CO2/sand dry-frac process is a waterless fracturing technology in which CO2 instead of water is used as fracturing fluid. The application of the technology abroad (in the USA and Canada) shows that it works well in stimulating low-pressure, low ...

Drilling Burr Minimization by Changing Drill Geometry [PDF]
This article presents an attempt to solve the problem of the formation of burrs and drilling caps in the process of drilling in difficult-to-cut materials, specifically in the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. In order to eliminate these phenomena, a chamfer of specific length and angle was made on FANAR drill’s margin.
