Estimation of Impact Hardness of Rocks by Means of Drop Hammer Test.
Shigen-to-Sozai, 1992 The impact hardness of rock is normally determined by using a ‘Protodyakonov’ type drop hammer. However, this test cannot be applied to a wide range of rocks. Therefore, standardized impact hardness test using the ‘Protodyakonov’ type drop hammer was carried out and the correlati ons of the resulting values of impact hardness with the mechanical ...

FiN‐Kiri: Fabric‐Based Inflatable Kirigami Actuator for Multimodal Soft Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study introduces a type of inflatable fabric‐based kirigami actuator capable of performing bending motion. The actuator is utilized as soft grippers, a crawling robot and a swimming robot. The crawling robot demonstrated extraordinary motion capabilities, such as moving forward, turning and navigating a narrow tunnel.
