The chapters cover the history of drilling and excavation, drill types, drilling techniques and their advantages and associated issues, rock coring including acquisition, damage control, caching and transport, and data interpretation, as well as unconsolidated soil drilling and borehole stability. This book includes a description of the basic science of the drilling process, associated processes of breaking and penetrating various media, the required hardware, and the process of excavation and analysis of the sampled media.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescribes recent advances in terrestrial drilling.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses drilling in the broadest range of media including terrestrial surfaces, ice and underwater from shallow penetration to very deep.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides an in-depth description of key drilling techniques and the unified approach to assessing the required tools for given drilling requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses environmental effects on drilling, current challenges of drilling and excavation, and methods that are used to address these. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamines novel drilling and excavation approaches.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Yoseph Bar-Cohen is the Supervisor of the Electroactive Technologies Group (http: \/\/ndeaa.jpl.nasa.gov\/) and a Senior Research Scientist at the Jet Propulsion Lab\/Caltech, Pasadena, CA.
