The influence of blasting energy on fragmentation and damage reserved rock is important for safety schedule drill-blasting construction in coal mine. This study aimed at investigating the dynamic mechanical properties mudstone mine using characterization method, their quantitative relation formula was also developed. impact compression experiments Huainan mining area were conducted to saturated...

The state of deadman in hearth is important for the long campaign life blast furnace (BF). In order to clarify influence on sidewall erosion, corresponding relationship between shape and erosion was studied, fundamental reason difference analyzed, mechanism slag-coke interface iron-coke coke explored based phase distribution deadman. results show that: circumferential bulge at root a common fea...

Although, experimental studies have reported fracture at the corner of Steel Plate Shear Walls (SPSW), no study has been performed to investigate the crack effect, yet. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of crack at the corner of SPSWs on the seismic behavior of the system was investigated. Two probable cracks, that have been studies at the corner of SPSWs utilizing extended Finite Element me...

abstract rice can be cultivated in various soils but soil with heavy texture and low permeability is more appropriate for its growth than other types of soil texture. it’s assumed that existence of zeolite in soil can be effective for moisture retention and avoiding of occurrence of crack in soil. in order to investigation of the effect of zeolite on moisture status and hydraulic properties of ...

As fretting fatigue cracks are initiated at an early stage of life, the fretting fracture process is dominated by the stable growth of cracks. Hence the measurement of crack length is very important. This paper demonstrates the suitability of the DC potential drop technique for the measurement of fretting cracks. A calibration has been established for monitoring crack growth in BS L65 copper al...

Segments of dog carotid artery were held at in-situ length and studied in vitro after excitation of the muscle with norepinephrine and after poisoning of the muscle with potassium cyanide. In-situ length corresponded to a longitudinal strain of .57 ± .02 relative to the unstretched length. The longitudinal elastic modulus was about 4.1 X 10 dyn/cm at in-situ length and zero transmural pressure....

A 2-dimensional, elastic-plastic finite element model has been developed to simulate plasticity induced crack closure in slanted and deflected cracks growing outside the small scale yielding (SSY) regime. The finite element model allows for contact between deformable surfaces to capture the complex contact interaction between the crack faces. Coulomb’s friction law has been used to model fricti...
