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 ...
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. ...
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 ...
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 ...
Concrete paving blocks and flags made with crushed brick as aggregate
(Construction and Building Materials, 2012)
Demolition of old buildings in urban cores has produced a large amount of waste material. Since they are mostly masonry structures the largest part of the waste material is ceramic waste. Besides that, ceramic waste is ...
Failure investigation of the bucket wheel excavator crawler chain link
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
The high mobility of open pit machines in heavy duty conditions provides fertile ground for the occurrence of various failures of the traveling mechanisms' vital parts such as chain links. The goal of the study presented ...
Validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence procedure for determination of major and trace elements present in the cement based composites
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
Adjustment and subsequent validation of energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) method for cement based binders with addition of mineral raw materials (fly ash, zeolite and bentonite) was conducted. Eighteen chemical ...
Chemometric analysis of the influence of mechanical activation on the mica quality parameters
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
The differences in the set of the process parameters measured before and after mica mechanical activation and their influence on the grain size distribution related characteristics have been studied. The modification of ...
