AES: Autonomous Excavator System for Real-World and Hazardous Environments
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
Operating excavators in a real-world environment can be challenging due to extreme conditions and rock sliding, ground collapse, or exceeding dust. ...
An autonomous excavator that can substitute human operators in these hazardous environments would substantially lower the number of injuries and can improve the overall productivity. ...
Our autonomous excavator (AES) is the first unmanned excavator system that has been deployed in real world scenarios and used by manufacturers of heavy machinery and the construction industry. ...

Preliminary engineering application of microseismic monitoring technique to rockburst prediction in tunneling of Jinping II project
2010
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
It is found that precursory microcracking exists prior to most rockbursts, which could be captured by the microseismic monitoring system. ...
The authors think the feasibility of rockburst prediction can be understood in three aspects: (1) the heterogeneity of rock is the main reason for the existence of rockburst precursors; (2) deformation ...
