A testing apparatus includes a support unit that supports a lower surface side of a test piece, a pressing unit having an indenter that presses the test piece supported by the support unit, a drive unit that raises and lowers the pressing unit, a load measurement instrument that measures a load generated when the indenter presses the test piece supported by the support unit, and a controller that controls raising and lowering of the pressing unit. The controller is configured to be capable of stopping movement of the indenter when a measurement value of the load measurement instrument has turned from a rise to a fall after the indenter has started pressing of the test piece.

A high-speed tensile testing machine conducts a tensile test on a test piece by applying a test force to the test piece. The high-speed tensile testing machine includes a detection unit configured to detect a test period indicating a time from when the test piece starts to deform under action of the test force to when the test piece breaks, and a determination unit configured to determine validity of a test result of the tensile test, on the basis of the test period and natural vibration of the high-speed tensile testing machine. Specifically, in the case where the test period is a predetermined multiple or more of a specific cycle indicating a cycle of the natural vibration of the high-speed tensile testing machine, the determination unit determines that the test result of the tensile test is valid.

A test system with detection feedback works with a robot to which a test object is attached. The test system includes a server and a force sensor disposed to the robot. The server controls the robot to drive the test object to contact a test platform while the force sensor detects at least one reaction force on the test object to generate a sensing feedback signal for the server. When the reaction force corresponding to a direction and indicated by the sensing feedback signal does not match a force setting value, the server adjusts a level to which the robot drives the test object to move relative to the test platform so that the reaction force corresponding to the direction can match the force setting value. Therefore, the resistance acting on the test object moving relative to the test platform may be automatically maintained at the preset degree.

A pressure-preserving conventional triaxial compression loading apparatus of the present invention includes a pressure vessel, an upper piston rod, a lower piston rod, and an annular oil bag assembly. Hollow chambers of the pressure vessel in vertical communication sequentially include an upper chamber, an upper sealed chamber, a confining pressure chamber, a lower sealed chamber, and a lower chamber from top to bottom. The annular oil bag assembly is placed in the confining pressure chamber. When an annular inner chamber of an annular oil bag is filled with medium, an outer wall of the annular oil bag and an inner wall of the confining pressure chamber are attached together. A fidelity specimen is placed in a specimen chamber defined by a lower end surface of the upper piston rod, an upper end surface of the lower piston rod, and an inner wall of the annular oil bag. A variety of measuring sensors are disposed in the annular inner chamber of the annular oil bag. The pressure-preserving conventional triaxial compression loading apparatus of the present invention may accommodate a fidelity specimen, and use the annular oil bag assembly and the upper and lower piston rods to perform a pressure-preserving conventional triaxial loading test on the fidelity specimen, so that test data is more accurate and reliable, to help to study the mechanical behavior of in-situ rock and measure their properties more faithfully.

In a method for determination of properties of cuttings from rock drilling the cuttings are crushed between at least two rollers, at least one roller being driven by a motor. A mechanic specific energy of the cuttings is determined by measuring the energy applied by the motor.
