A fuzzy logic based classification for assessing of rock mass drillability
This paper describes a fuzzy classification system for evaluating of rock mass drillability. Six parameters; Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS), joints dipping, Mohs hardness, joints aperture, joints spacing and grain size have been used. In this fuzzy system, each rock mass is classified into five modes from very poor to excellent condition. As a case study, 15 rock masses in two mines in Iran ...

Reaching underground resources
Accessing critical resources such as geothermal energy and natural gas requires drilling — an expensive, energy-intensive, messy process with today's technology. An MIT team has been looking into a more elegant approach. Instead of grinding rock to bits, they would use a continuous beam of energy to vaporize it and then blow out the tiny particles that form with a high-pressure stream of ...
