Abstract

life-cycle cost analysis model is developed in this study, to examine the effects of particle size distribution of the solid particles to be\\ud transported on the optimal sizing and lifetime of the pipelines used for transportation of solid-liquid mixtures. The method determines [...]

Abstract

In order to investigate the high volume fraction problem of the solid phase in superfine unclassified backfilling pipeline transportation, characteristic parameters were obtained by fitting to test data with an R–R particle size distribution function; then, a Euler dense-phase DPM [...]

Abstract

In selective laser melting, components are produced by layer-by-layer melting of a powder bed. To investigate the interaction between the powder bed and the laser energy in the process, it is necessary to generate different powder bed configurations with a defined particle size [...]
