As real-time computation costs continually decline, both mechanical robustness and economic considerations increasingly favor the replacement of mechanical sensors and transducers by software-based state estimation methods. The elimination of encoders or resolves on induction ma…

This study investigated the differences in the cutting performance of two rock cutting tools in dry and saturated rock. For this purpose, a permeable quartzose sandstone was subjected to a series of full scale linear rock cutting tests, in both dry and saturated conditions, usin…
