Grinding of mineral mixtures in high-pressure grinding rolls

Attempts at improving comminution machines generally have been directed towards increasing the performance efficiency, particularly increasing throughput rate and decreasing energy consumption. The latest and most successful new comminution technology has been the high-pressure grinding rolls (HPGR), which have proved to be highly efficient in energy consumption and to have a relatively high throughput rate at low steel consumption. Already used extensively in cement plants worldwide, the first HPGRs in the mineral industry were installed in plants processing diamond ores. They are now finding their way into the large-scale base-metal mining industry. Since feed constituents in natural ores vary in their physical properties such as hardness, plasticity and brittleness, the present paper is concerned with an investigation of the behavior of a heterogeneous feed as it passes through the HPGR. The effect of feed composition on operational parameters, the energy efficiency of comminution, and energy distribution among the feed components is addressed. Mineral particles with high hardness act as energy transfer agents in the roll gap and enhance the grinding of softer mineral particles in a mixed feed.     

Theoretical Derivation of a Peak Particle Velocity–Distance Law for the Prediction of Vibrations from Blasting

I would like to suggest a theoretical justification for the mathematical structure of some laws for predicting the maximum particle velocity vibration from blasting operations in the light of some basic notions of elastic and anelastic wave theory. Within this point of view, in dimensionally correct expressions, the terms pertaining to the rock, to the blast and to the seismic wave become evident and recognisable. A law is presented that can be used to forecast the maximum particle velocity on the basis of some blast design and rock parameters. Four tests of the proposed law performed with real data sets seem to confirm fairly well its reliability.     

Dark energy and the anthropic principle

The Hubble constant is split into two terms H = H₁ + H₂ , where H₁ is a decreasing function due to the Big Bang and the subsequent gravitational interaction that slows the expansion of the Universe and H₂ is an increasing function that corresponds to dark energy which accelerates this expansion. For T = 13.7 Gyr we prove that H₂(T) > 5 m/(yr AU). This is a quite large number and thus the impact of dark energy, which is spread almost everywhere uniformly, should be observable not only on large scales, but also in our Solar system. In particular, we show that Earth, Mars and other planets were closer to the Sun 4.5 Gyr ago. The recession speed ≈5.3 m/yr of the Earth from the Sun seems to be just right for an almost constant influx of solar energy from the origin of life on Earth up to the present over which time the Sun’s luminosity has increased approximately linearly. This presents further support for the Anthropic Principle. Namely, the existence of dark energy guarantees very stable conditions for the development of intelligent life on Earth over a period of 3.5 Gyr.     

江苏数字地震台网P波谱震级和地震辐射能的计算

基于江苏数字地震台网的宽频带记录,对38次M≥5.0地震的P波谱震级M_P进行测定,对地震的辐射能量进行了估算。结果表明:本文测定的M_P与中国地震台网中心(CENC)测定的MS、德国地学中心(GFZ)测定的MW具有很好的一致性,与该2种震级之间的平均偏差分别约为0.17和0.10级,基本小于世界主要地震机构之间对同一震级的测定误差(约0.2级);同时,基于M_P估算的地震辐射能与基于修正G-R关系由MS震级换算获得的结果十分接近,两者平均能量之比约为1.1,表明M_P与P波群(P+pP+sP)能量流是基本等效的。因此,基于宽频带数字记录测定中强地震的P波谱震级以及地震辐射能是可行的,且测定过程简便。
