Abstract
Abstract Inspired by the bending vibration observed in the biological locomotions such as those found in snakes, horned lizards, and sandfish, we have developed a novel vibro probe utilizing bending resonance modes to study the bending vibration effects in assisting penetration into granular materials. This approach contrasts with traditional probes that rely on longitudinal vibrations for penetration. This newly developed probe was used to experimentally investigate the impact of bending vibration in reducing the required penetration force and enhancing the penetration process within granular materials such as lunar or Martian regolith. The bending vibrations were excited by thin piezo patches attached to the probe’s machined surface without increasing the probe’s outside diameter. This simple mechanism enables pushing the whole probe inside the granular materials. Experimental modal analysis was employed to determine the resonance frequencies of the probe. Subsequently, the probe was pushed into granular materials, both with and without the bending vibrations, by a linear actuator. Experimental results indicated that employing bending vibration in one direction led to a reduction in penetration force by up to 27% while utilizing two directions resulted in a reduction of up to 42%. Additionally, when the probe stopped penetrating the soil due to insufficient axial force, bi-directional bending vibration proved more effective in swiftly fluidizing the surrounding soil. These findings highlight the efficacy of bending vibrations in compact subsurface drilling tools.
