Fundamentals of Discrete Element Methods for Rock Engineering - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Lanru Jing خلاصه: PREFACE This book is a summary of our collaborative teaching and research efforts over the last two decades relating to the subject of discrete element methods (DEM) and its applications to rock mechanics and rock engineering. We have not intended this book to be a thorough presentation of the most current cutting- edge research subjects in the fields of DEM and its applications in geosciences and geoengineering – because the advances are occurring too rapidly. Instead we present some fundamental concepts behind the basic theories and tools of DEM, its historical development and its wide scope of applications in geology, geophysics and rock engineering. We hope that, with this moderate ambition, it may be more helpful and useful for a larger number of practicing engineers, students and researchers alike and serve as a starting platform for more advanced and in-depth further studies. Unlike almost all books available on the general subject of DEM, this book includes coverage of both explicit and implicit DEM approaches, namely the distinct element methods and discontinuous deforma- tion analysis (DDA) for both rigid and deformable blocks and particle systems, and also the discrete fracture network (DFN) approach for fluid flow simulations. Actually the latter is also a discrete approach of importance for rock mechanics and rock engineering. In addition, brief introductions to some alternative approaches are also provided, such as percolation theory and Cosserat micro-mechanics equivalence to particle systems, which often appear hand in hand with the DEM in the literature. We provide a presentation of the fundamentals of the governing equations of the discrete systems concerning motion, deformation, fluid flow and heat transfer, to an extent that is currently considered in some available DEM codes. Special attention is given to constitutive models of rock fractures and fracture system characterization methods. These two issues are the basic building blocks of DEM and also have the most significant impacts on the performance and uncertainty of the DEM models. The DEMs were pioneered and continuously developed by Dr P. A. Cundall, the creator of the distinct element methods, and Dr Genhua Shi, the creator of DDA, block theory and numerical manifold method. The authors learned DEM basics from them and received continuous inspirations and encour- agements. This book presents only some basics of the distinct element methods and discontinuous deformation analysis, only small parts of their outstanding contributions. The first author expresses his special gratitude to Professor Xuefu Yu in China, who led the author into the fields of rock mechanics and numerical modeling in late 1970s and provided continuous guidance and encouragements

The Iron Oxides Structure, Properties, Reactions, Occurences and Uses - Original PDF
نویسندگان: R. M. Cornell, U. Schwertmann خلاصه: Preface to the Second Edition Since this book first appeared, there have been hundreds of new publications on the subject of iron oxides. These have covered a wide range of disciplines including sur- face chemistry, the geosciences, mineralogy, environmental science and various branches of technology. In view of the amount of new material that is available, we decided, that once the copies of the first edition were exhausted, we would prepare a second edition that would incorporate the new developments. As before, our aim has been to bring all aspects of the information concerning iron oxides into a single, compact volume. All the chapters have been revised and up- dated and new figures and tables added. The book is structured according to topic with the same arrangement as in the first edition being followed. In view of the re- cent recognition of the impact iron oxides have on environmental processes, a chap- ter dealing with the environmental aspects of these compounds has been added. The book concludes with a considerably expanded bibliography. We hope that this new edition will continue to be of interest to all those research- ers who, in one way or another, are involved with iron oxides. Numerous persons and institutions from around the world again supplied data, figures, colour pictures and electron micrographs and technical help. These include Dr. H. Chr. Bartscherer (Mçnchen), Mr M. Burlot (Apt), Dr. R. Båumler and Dr. Be- cher (Freising), Mr H. Breuning (Stuttgart), Dr. J. M. Bigham (Columbus, USA), Dr. G. Buxbaum (Bayer), Dr. L.

نویسندگان: K. Schönert خلاصه: Particle arrangements and confinements can be classified in the four groups (1) single particle situation, (2) one-particle layer, (3) particle bed confined closely or widely, and (4) ideal particle bed. Any confinement influences the stress distribution inside the bed due to the wall friction, and a complex stress field arises. The size-reduction effect is represented with the fraction of broken particles, the breakage function and the specific surface increases. The breakage functions of the particle bed comminution display as truncated logarithmic normal distributions. The stressing intensity can be quantified by the pressure, the stress field characteristics or the energy absorption. Although the stress field situation can differ extremely, the overall energy absorption has been proven to represent the stressing intensity very well in respect to the size-reduction. The transition from a close to a moderately wide confinement does not affect the size-reduction strongly. Steel balls inserted in a particle bed improve the breakage of coarse particles at a low intensity level. This advantage fades with increasing intensity and decreasing particle size.

Integral Waterproofing of Concrete Structures - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Maher Al-Jabari خلاصه: Concrete is the most popular construction material, which has a widespread range of structural applications, under numerous environmental conditions and under various levels and types of mechanical loads. It is used in buildings, infrastruc- tures, dams etc. Its suitability and durability require a set of mechanical, physi- cal, and chemical characteristics in order to extend its service life. Concrete durability is defined according to Concrete Terminology by American Concrete Institute (ACI) [1], as “the ability of concrete to resist weathering action, chemi- cal attack, abrasion, and other conditions of service.” This performance is simply based on concrete chemistry. Concrete durability properties are determined by its chemical structure and porosity. These structural characteristics are determined by cement components and their reactions with water. Understanding concrete durability problems and solutions requires a sufficient knowledge about concrete chemistry.
Iron Oxides by Damien Faivre - PDF
Iron Oxides by Damien Faivre - PDF
نویسندگان: Damien Faivre خلاصه: As the name of the book “Iron oxides: from nature to applications” suggests, iron oxides are not only widespread in the environment, but also widely used by mankind in a variety of applications (Figure 1.1). Both this ubiquitous presence in nature and the utilization as tools have been established for cen- turies and are still valid today. The first illustrative examples of iron oxides certainly are compass needle or rust (Figure 1.2). Iron oxides are present in solid, liquid, and gaseous environments, with respective examples such as rocks, as mineral inclusion in swimming bacteria or in aerosols. Depending on the type of use, several sources of iron oxides exist. Applications range from the heavy steel production to medicine and art. The different aspects of mineral formation and their use as well as modern characterization techniques are reviewed in this book

Essentials of Flow Assurance Solids in Oil and Gas Operations Understanding Fundamentals, Characterization, Prediction, Environmental Safety, and Managemen - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Abdullah Hussein خلاصه: ntroduction Oil and gas were formed over millions of years from the dead bodies of plankton (tiny marine organ- isms). These prehistoric dead plankton and their naturally engineered product have dominated and shaped modern times into “the Great Oil Age,” as McKenzie-Brown, Jaremko, and Finch titled their book on the subject [1]. Petroleum shapes our modern times in two main ways: first by serving as the main source of energy, and secondly by being the raw material for thousands of products that play critical roles in modern civilization. Fossil fuels still constitute the major global source of energy, despite the recent advances in renew- able sources of energy. Fossil fuels represent 85% of global primary energy consumption [2,3], with oil remaining as the most used source in the energy mix (33%–34%), as shown in Fig. 1.1. The global consumption of and demand for hydrocarbons (oil and gas) outweigh that of other sources of energy such as coal, nuclear, and renewable energies, due to the fast-growing population and newly emerging technologies. The global energy demand is projected to more than double by 2050 due to the growth in population and economies [4]. The demand for gas is growing faster than the demand for oil, especially in developing countries [5,6]

Structured Fluids: Polymers, Colloids, Surfactants - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Thomas A. Witten, Philip A. Pincus خلاصه: Over the last thirty years, the study of liquids containing polymers, surfactants, or colloidal particles has developed from a loose assembly of facts into a coherent discipline with substantial predictive power. These liquids expand our conception of what condensed matter can do. Such structured-fluid phenomena dominate the physical environment within living cells. This book teaches how to think of these fluids from a unified point of view showing the far-reaching effects of thermal fluctuations in producing forces and motions. Keeping mathematics to a minimum, the book seeks the simplest explanations that account for the distinctive scaling properties of these fluids. An example is the growth of viscosity of a polymer solution as the cube of the molecular weight of the constituent polymers. Another is the hydrodynamic radius of a colloidal aggregate, which remains comparable to its geometrical radius even though the density of particles in the aggregate becomes arbitrarily small. The book aims for a simplicity, unity and depth not found in previous treatments, and includes numerous figures, tables and problems. It will be an ideal textbook for teaching undergraduates in physical science how to understand soft matter, but will also be of interest to industrial scientists, who want to gain a broader understanding of soft matter systems
