Fragmentation characteristics of abrasive particles for hard rock drilling with waterjet energy parameter

The use of abrasive waterjets (AWJs) for rock drilling offers advantages in urbanized areas, locations that are vulnerable to damage, and piling operations. However, the overall operational cost of AWJ systems remains high compared to that of conventional drilling methods, which constrains the long-...
