Abstract
Substitute bases for demolition hammers should emulate mineral materials. Their advantage over mineral materials is that they are not destroyed by the energy of high-frequency impacts, enabling repeatable tests for the development of demolition hammers. To date, no substitute bases are known that can represent a wide range of different materials in an equivalently effective manner. This paper presents a hydraulic substitute base whose stiffness and damping can be adjusted by varying oil volume, orifice cross-section, and preload pressure.
Keywords: Hydraulic substitute base, demolition hammer, adjustable damping, simulation-based design, impact testing
