Solid waste-based cementitious materials are low-cost and have the advantages of low
energy consumption and low carbon emissions compared to conventional cement. Tailings …

The performance of a comminution and classification process depends on the design and
configuration of each process unit, the configuration of the plant, the design of the control …

Calcareous sand is a typical problematic marine sediment because of its angular and
porous particles. The effects of internal pores on the mechanical properties of calcareous …

A series of single particle crushing tests were conducted on 400 coral particles with size
ranges of 3–5 mm, 6.5–8.5 mm and 10–12 mm at loading rates of 0.1–50 mm/min. The …

Particle breakage occurs in comminution machines and, inadvertently, in other process
equipment during handling as well as in geotechnical applications. For nearly a century …

The influence of strain rate on the mechanics of particles is well documented. However, a
comprehensive understanding of the strain rate effect on calcareous particles, particularly in …

It has been found that the physical and mechanical properties of rockfill materials deteriorate
when subjected to wetting–drying cycles. Previous studies have mainly focused on the …

Mineral liberation and size reduction are the most critical steps before mineral separation.
Several investigations showed that mineral liberation degree could be affected by ore …

Single particle crushing tests were conducted to investigate the size effect on the crushing
behaviors of single calcareous sand particles experimentally and numerically. The particle …

Breakage of cereal grains approximated ellipsoidal shape such as rice and wheat kernel is
