in this paper shear behavior of two calcareous sands having different physical properties areinvestigated using drained and undrained triaxial tests. the investigated sands are obtained from two differentzones located in persian gulf, kish island and tonbak region. analysis based on energy aspects show thatfriction angle in these soils, having crushable particles, is formed of three components:...

simulation of grinding circuits has being performed from 30 years ago and is also to be more complete and powerful approach with improvement of mathematical models which simulate various processing units/machines. the modeling and simulation of various mineral processing circuits are presently performed. in order to simulate the present grinding circuits of esfordi phosphate processing plant, a...

Early researchers hoped to describe ball milling as a series of particle breakage and re-breakage events. This review reveals that needed input population balance modeling (PBM), the “breakage function,” was never intended be taken literally but assumed solve matrix calculations. Along with liquid-tracer–based residence time, rates each size class (the “selection function”) could then back-calc...

Particle breakage in stirred vessels is usually modeled using population balance equations (PBEs) to describe the evolution in particle size with time. Although shape has a strong effect on the particle properties and hence the product quality, changes in the particle shape distribution are typically neglected. To account for changes in both size and shape simultaneously, a multivariate populat...

During the rice milling process, a huller system is used to remove rough rice hull, then abrasive or frictional mill product whitened rice. In such machines adjustment and control, operation is important, because breakage percentage of rice is one main factor in determination of quality. Today’s image processing techniques has become an increasingly popular and cost-effect...

To study the influence law of overburden rotating plate mechanism on fragmentation and separation potato soil agglomerates, a single-factor test response surface simulation analysis process were conducted in EDEM 2022 software. The results show that triangular rack blade overburdened has best effect separation. With increase lower speed, upper lift chain bar line tilt angle mechanism, agglomera...

Abstract: The present study investigates four materials, namely quartz, marble, quartzite and metasandstone and aims to establish correlations, with the use of simple and multiple regression analysis, between their properties and breakage rate parameters. The material properties considered in this study derived from the application of destructive and non-destructive tests and include P-wave vel...
