Railway Ballast Diagnose through Impact Hammer Test
AbstractThis paper reports a feasibility study in the use of measured modal parameters of in-situ concrete sleepers to detect possible damage of the underlying railway ballast. There are many methods developed for monitoring and damage detection of the rail track.

Ultrasonically Assisted Hammer-Action Penetrators in Planetary Regolith [PDF]
This paper describes the effects of combining ultrasonic vibration with hammer-action style penetrators, such as the HP3 probe on the InSight mission. By synchronizing short pulses of vibration with the impact of the hammer, the number of hammer strikes ...
