The low rate of penetration and short lifetime of drilling bit served as the most common problems encountered in hard formation drilling, thus leading to severe restriction of drilling efficiency in oil and gas reservoir. This study developed a new local impact drilling method to enhance hard formation drilling efficiency. The limitation length formulas of radial/lateral cracks under static indentation and dynamic impact are derived based on the experimental research of Marshall D.B considering the mud column pressure and confining pressure. The local impact rock breaking simulation model is conducted to investigate its ROP raising effect. The results demonstrate that the length of radial/lateral cracks will increase as the decrease of mud pressure and confining pressure, and the local impact can result in a damage zone round the impact crater which helps the rock cutting, thus leading to the ROP increase. The numerical results also demonstrate the advantages of local impact method for raising ROP and the vibration reduction of bit in hard formation drilling. This study has shown that the local impact method can help raising the ROP and vibration reduction of bit, and it may be applied in drilling engineering.

The pick cutter, which directly contacts and crushes the rock, is the expendable part of a roadheader. The arrangement and angle of attachment of the pick cutter are important factors that determine excavator performance. It is necessary to numerically calculate the contact between the pick cutter and rock. The rock is defined as a set of particles using the discrete element method. The parallel bond model is used to define the bonds between particles. The properties of granite that are measured by the uniaxial compressive test are applied to the numerical rock model. The pick cutter is defined by the polygon elements. The linear cutting simulation is considered to simulate the contact between the pick cutter and rock. The results of the simulation show the rock breaking due to contact with the pick cutter.

Waste fills resulting from coal mining should consist of large, free-draining sedimentary rocks fragments. The successful performance of these fills is related to the strength and durability of the individual rock fragments. When fills are made of shale fragments, some fragments will be durable and some will degrade into soil particles resulting from slaking and inter-particle point loads. The degraded material fills the voids between the intact fragments, and results in settlement. A laboratory program with point load and slake durability tests as well as thin section examination of sixty-eight shale samples from the Appalachian region of the United States revealed that pore micro-geometry has a major influence on degradation. Under saturated and unsaturated conditions, the shales absorb water, and the air in their pores is compressed, breaking the shales. This breakage was more pronounced in shales with smooth pore boundaries and having a diameter equal to or smaller than 0.060 mm. If the pore walls were rough, the air-pressure breaking mechanism was not effective. However, pore roughness (measured by the fractal dimension) had a detrimental effect on point load resistance. This study indicated that the optimum shales to resist both slaking as well as point loads are those that have pores with a fractal dimension equal to 1.425 and a diameter equal to or smaller than 0.06 mm.

Waterjet is a very useful technology for rock excavation because of low level noise and vibration during breaking rocks. To accurately predict the volume and shape excavated by the waterjet, it is important to understand waterjet fracture mechanisms. There have been various theoretical assumptions and approaches in the literature. In this study, waterjet mechanisms are classified into three standards: a mechanism scale, theoretical assumption for a target material, and jet phase. In addition, through a waterjet experimental study for weathered and intact granitic rocks, a fracture shape is observed and analyzed on comparison with the previous mechanisms. As a result, best waterjet mechanisms are selected to explain the fracture pattern of the granitic rocks.

Water-resisting key stratum (WKS) between coal seams is an important barrier that prevents water inrush from goaf in roof under multi-seam mining. The occurrence of water inrush can be evaluated effectively by analyzing the fracture of WKS in multi-seam mining. A "long beam" water inrush mechanical model was established using the multi-seam mining of No. 2+3 and No. 8 coal seams in Xiqu Mine as the research basis. The model comprehensively considers the pressure from goaf, the gravity of overburden rock, the gravity of accumulated water, and the constraint conditions. The stress distribution expression of the WKS was obtained under different mining distances in No. 8 coal seam. The criterion of breakage at any point of the WKS was obtained by introducing linear Mohr strength theory. By using the mechanical model, the fracture of the WKS in Xiqu Mine was examined and its breaking position was calculated. And the risk of water inrush was also evaluated. Moreover, breaking process of the WKS was reproduced with Flac3D numerical software, and was analyzed with on-site microseismic monitoring data. The results showed that when the coal face of No. 8 coal seam in Xiqu Mine advances to about 80 m ~ 100 m, the WKS is stretched and broken at the position of 60 m ~ 70 m away from the open-off cut, increasing the risk of water inrush from goaf in roof. This finding matched the result of microseismic analysis, confirming the reliability of the water inrush mechanical model. This study therefore provides a theoretical basis for the prevention of water inrush from goaf in roof in Xiqu Mine. It also provides a method for evaluating and monitoring water inrush from goaf in roof.

본보는 2003년도에 국제 학술지에 수록된 논문을 국내의 전문가들에게 소개하는 기술보고서이다. 본 연구에서 취성파괴를 보이는 암석에 대하여 시간의존성의 중요성을 설명하는 파괴역학적 모텔이 개발되었다. 균열면을 따라 형성된 신선한 구간인 암석 브리지의 파괴규명으로 불연속면의 점착강도가 감소하는 모델이 설정 되었다. 특히 임계조건 이전에 발생하는 균열성장을 사용하여 파괴역학적 모델을 개발하였는데, 이로부터 시간과 점착강도의 관계를 독립된 수식으로 표현하였다. 예로서 평면파괴가 예상되는 암석 블록에 대한 분석이 이루어 졌다. 절리면의 점착강도는 연속적으로 감소하는 것으로 밝혀줬는데, 초기에는 아주 점진적이며 그 후에는 급격하다. 그러다가 어느 시점에서는 감소된 점착강도는 사면의 불안정과 붕괴를 야기한다. 두 번째 예에서는 몇몇 물질 상수들이 분산을 가진다고 가정하였다. 여기에서는 확률론적으로 사면의 안정성이 분석되었는데 사면의 파괴확률을 시간의 함수로 예견할 수 있다. 시간이 경과함에 따라 사면의 파괴확률은 점점 증가하여 초기에 5% 수준에서 100년 후에는 40% 이상으로 증가한다. 이러한 예제들은 지하구조물이 비록 비교적 단기목적이라 하더라도 불연속면을 갖는 암반의 시간의존성 거동을 예측할 수 있음을 보여 주었다.

The specially-shaped Polycrystalline Diamond Compact (PDC) cutter is widely used in drill bit design due to its advantages of high rock cutting efficiency, strong impact resistance and long service life in hard and abrasive formation drilling. A detailed understanding of rock cutting behavior of worn specially-shaped PDC cutter is essential to improve the drilling efficiency and decrease the drilling costs. In this paper, the theoretical models of two new principles (loading performance (LP) and cutting performance (CP)) are derived for evaluating the cutting process of worn specially-shaped cutter, the theoretical models consider the factors, such as cutter geometry, aggressiveness, stress state, working life, and rock cutting efficiency. Besides, the numerical model of heterogeneous granite is developed using finite element method combined with Voronoi tessellation, the LP and CP of 12 kinds of worn specially-shaped PDC (SPDC) cutters are analyzed. The results found that the mechanical specific energy (MSE) of worn cutters first increase and then decrease with increasing the cutting depth, and the MSE increase with the increase of back rake angle except for Conical cutter and Wedge-shaped cutter. From the perspective of CP, the worn PDC cutters are more suitable for the smaller cutting depths, and the back rake angle has little effect on the CP of the specially-shaped worn PDC cutters. Conical cutter, Saddle-shaped cutter and Ellipse-shaped cutter have the highest CP value, while Rhombus-shaped cutter, Convex cutter and Wedge-shaped cutter have the lowest value in selecting cutters. This research leads to an enhanced understanding of rock-breaking mechanisms of worn SPDC cutters, and provides the basis to select of specially-shaped PDC cutters for the specific target formation.

암석의 동결과 융해 작용의 반복적인 과정은 암반의 기계적인 풍화작용의 중요한 인자 중에 하나이다. 이러한 자연 상태의 과정은 암반 물질의 파쇄에 의해서 풍화를 가속시키고 암반 사면의 표층부에 토양이나 풍화암을 생산한다. 또한 사면의 전단강도 감소를 일으키므로 사면 안정성 분석을 위하여 동결-융해에 의해 유발되는 열화 심도를 계산하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 동결-융해에 의한 암반 사면의 열화 심도를 1차원 열전도방정식을 이용하여 계산하였다. 국내 주요 도시의 지난 5년간 기온 자료를 수집하여 기온 분포를 분석하였다. 기온 분포 분석은 국내 암종 분포를 고려하여 수행되었다. 아울러 연구 대상 지역에 분포하는 암석의 열전도율, 비열, 밀도 등에 대한 실내 시험을 수행하였다. 이들 암석의 열적 특성은 열화심도 계산을 위한 입력 인자로서 활용되었다. 본 논문은 암석의 열적 특성의 차이를 의미하는 암종, 외부 기온 등의 영향 인자들과 열화심도 간의 상관관계에 대하여 검토하였다. 최종적으로 계산에 의한 국내 주요 도시의 암반 사면 열화심도 추정 값을 소개하고자 한다.

옛날에는 거대한 바위를 제거하기 위해서는 다이나마이트 등의 폭약을 사용하여 폭파개념의 발파를 해왔다. 그러나 도심지에서 지하철굴착, 건물기초굴착, 택지조성 등을 위해서는 폭파개념의 굴착은 곤란하다. 건설교통부 암발파설계 및 시험발파 잠정지침(안)에서는 0.3cm/sec(센티세크)를 진동안전기준치로 하였을 때 $25\~120m$ 이격거리에서는 TYPE I의 암파쇄굴착공법에서 TYPE IV의 진동제어중규모 발파공법을 권장하고 있다. 본 논문은 25m이내 지역의 최근접 암파쇄굴착공법(TYPE I)적용 최적공법인 나노프라즈마 공법을 소개하고자 한다. 나노프라즈마 공법을 적용하여 도심지 바위를 파쇄할 때 15m거리에서 기존의 미진동발파공법의 절반 진동수준인 0.1cm/sec가 예상되는 획기적인 공법이다.
