Numerical determination and experimental validation of the fracture toughness of welded joints
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Most of the serious weldment failures lead to catastrophic consequences in terms of damage of other equipment, loss of production, and risks to workers' health and safety. Hence, there is motivation to find margin between ...
Optimization of adobe clay bricks based on the raw material properties (mathematical analysis)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
This research studies the effects of composition and granulometry analysis of 139 heavy clays on the important characteristics of wet and adobe clay bricks. ANN models were obtained with high prediction accuracy in training ...
Prediction model based on artificial neural network for pyrophyllite mechano-chemical activation as an integral step in production of cement binders
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
The optimal outputs of pyrophyllite mechano-chemical activation in an ultra-centrifugal mill performing under different technological conditions were determined by analytical modeling and verified via Artificial Neural ...
Potential pathway for recycling of the paper mill sludge compost for brick making
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2021)
This study's focus was to develop a potential pathway for recycling of the paper mill sludge compost (PMSC) in brick making. Composting reduces the paper mill sludge (PMS) moisture content considerably and shredding becomes ...
Recycling of waste coal dust for the energy-efficient fabrication of bricks: A laboratory to industrial-scale study
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
In this study, an optimal mixture of loess brick clays and waste coal dust in laboratory hollow blocks production is determined with the aim of promoting sustainable development in terms of saving resources and energy. The ...
J-integral Analysis of the Simulated Heat-affected Zone of the Elevated-temperature Martensitic Steel
(Springer, New York, 2021)
Due to its superior strength at high temperatures P/T91 steel is often applied in the chemical, petrochemical and fossil-fired power generation industries. The high strength is achieved by a suitable martensitic microstructure ...
The characterization and pollution status of the surface sediment in the Boka Kotorska Bay, Montenegro
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2021)
Surface sediments collected from twelve stations in the Boka Kotorska Bay were analyzed for the level and distribution of twenty-six elements and ten oxides, grain sizes, organic matter, and carbonate content. Potentially ...
Alkali-activated geopolymerization of a low illitic raw clay and waste brick mixture. An alternative to traditional ceramics
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
Geopolymerization was investigated as an alternative to traditional ceramic products by developing a more sustainable approach that avoids thermal treatment. The study presents the first known alkali-activation of the raw ...
Model of Probabilistic Analysis of Pile Capacity Based on the Extrapolation of Load-Settlement Curves
(Springer, New York, 2020)
This paper formulates a mathematical model using the extrapolation of load-settlement curves with a rational function for analyzing the capacity of piles obtained from the static load test (SLT). In preliminary analyses, ...
Has the latest global financial crisis changed the way road public-private partnerships are funded? A comparison of Europe and Latin America
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
A financial/economic crisis may have an adverse effect on transport public-private partnerships (PPPs) as both traffic demand is negatively influenced, and governments are further under pressure. However, research on awarded ...
