Energy conversion in phosphate ore grain mixture activated via ultra-centrifugal mill
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
The aim of this investigation was to establish the optimal processing parameters of the comminuted phosphate grain mixture mechanical treatment by monitoring and evaluating the activated product characteristics. An ...
Numerical simulation of fatigue crack propagation: A case study of defected steam pipeline
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
In order to prevent the premature failure of steam pipeline produced of molybdenum-vanadium steel, the experimental tests were performed to measure fracture toughness and to determine the mechanical behaviour of cracked ...
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 ...
Assessment of intensive grinding effects on alumina as refractory compound: Acceleration of gamma to alpha phase transformation mechanism
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
In this study, the feasibility of alumina phase transition enhancement by mechanical activation was conducted. It was showed that the milling environment plays an important role on the physical, chemical and thermal behavior ...
ANN model of brick properties using LPNORM calculation of minerals content
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Mineralogical composition of heavy clays is one of the most important properties when stadying raw materials in brick industry. Within this study, quantitative determination of minerals using LPNORM calculation was performed, ...
Removal of toxic metals from industrial sludge by fixing in brick structure
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
The aim of this study was to test utilization possibilities of industrial sludge in masonry industry, as well as risk of toxic elements leaching potential. Sludge is generated in a hot-dip galvanizing process after waste ...
Evidence of continuous pottery production during the late Byzantine period in the Studenica Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2019)
A collection of 63 pottery shards excavated at the Studenica Monastery, Serbia, originating from two distinct cultural strata (late 12th until the late 13th century, and the 14th and the first half of 15th century) was ...
Prediction and fuzzy synthetic optimization of process parameters in heavy clay brick production
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Many factors influence final clay brick properties, since the raw materials used are highly heterogeneous. Statistical analysis is rarely used, according to literature, but it would improve understanding of the overall ...
Sensitivity analysis of mathematical models for final product properties: Link to DTG curve
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Compressive strength and water absorption of fired heavy clay products varies with firing temperatures, but not entirely according to linear function, as it is mostly reported in literature. Also, differential thermo-gravimetric ...
Mechanically activated coal ash as refractory bauxite shotcrete microfiller: Thermal interactions mechanism investigation
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
A growing demand for refractory castables with advanced properties has given rise to a continuous technological evolution and highlighted the necessity for secondary raw materials reapplication even in refractory industry. ...
