... Abstract Ore crushing is one of the most important steps in mine engineering, and numerical simulation is a useful way to predict the crushing effect under impact load. Based on continuum discontinuum element method (CDEM), by introducing the linear elastic constitutive law into the element...

... Abstract When transported in ship carriers nickel ore with excessive humidity may exceed its flow moisture point and liquefy under the effect of cyclic ship motion induced by the swell. Liquefaction of solid bulk means that the material loses all internal strength and behaves as a liquid. Once...
