Two types of crushing were applied to grains of red sorghum: manual crushing using a mortar and pestle of kitchen and mechanical crushing using a hammer mill. The flours obtained at the end of these various crushing were filtered and subdivided in different fractions according to the diameters of the mesh of the sieves (0.16mm; 0.25mm; 0.315mm; 0.4mm, and 0.63mm...). Some physical, chemical and...

This paper numerically investigates the seismic response of the filled joint under high amplitude stress waves using the combined finite-discrete element method (FDEM). A thin layer of independent polygonal particles are used to simulate the joint fillings. Each particle is meshed using the Delaunay triangulation scheme and can be crushed when the load exceeds its strength. The propagation of t...

Crushing and screening processes are often regulated using relay-based on/off controls or, when controlled by PID controllers, the control design is limited to a single crusher and its proximity. The design does not necessarily consider process interactions, load disturbances and, in a wider perspective, does not treat a crushing and screening plant as an entity from feeding to product piles. T...

Coal particle size and the degree of compaction significantly affect goaf heritage ventilated environment process spontaneous combustion coal, distribution are also affected by load application process, stress in is not uniform, resulting mined-out coal. It necessary to carry out experimental studies on coal crushing granularity under different loads loading processes clarify its law. Therefore...
