Especially since LaFollette and Carman (2010) reported that the current laboratory test on diagenesis is inaccurate due to the excessively high temperature used in the haste to understand diagenesis. In addition, additives in the fracturing fluids, such as a breaker, solid scale inhibitors, paraffin...
Laboratory tests were conducted to study the effects of curing time, cement ratio and seawater pressure on cement soil deterioration formed at simulative marine soft clay sites. Deterioration depth was determined on the basis of characteristics of penetration resistance and penetration depth curves, and...
As a result, it is necessary to analyze the mechanical behavior of the crack-containing structure subjected to the general fracture modes by using appropriate laboratory specimens. Several studies have been conducted in the field of providing such test specimens to examine the behavior of cracks in...
Consequently, a growing number of self-driving laboratories are being developed across a range of fields5–28. While many self-driving laboratories are able to test multiple experimental variables, most optimize for only a single objective (e.g., process parameter, material property)7–16. This ...
We are delighted to be the first production centre in the World to test the new Bego implant libraries on the Dental Wings platform, with great results. We launch a commercial in-house custom abutment and screw retained restoration scan and design service for our CAD-CAM clients. July...
The energy consumption in the cement mills varies between 30 to 50 kWh/ton. Clinker grinding test was conducted in a laboratory mill, 500 mm x 500 mm, for a time of 5 min and the amount of 3.5 kg of clinker. The experiment was done for clinker obtained by firing pet-coke as fuel ...
Xylene can be used to remove any oil film buildup on the lenses, but it should be used sparingly and must be removed by wiping with lens tissue (xylene is a solvent which can dissolve the cement that holds the lens in the objective). 3. Oil immersion Technique a. Place a drop of ...
To this end, numerous laboratory-scale hydraulic fracturing experiments have been performed using samples of different sizes and materials such as granite (Chen et al. 2015; Matsunaga et al. 1993), casted cement (Bai et al 2016; De Pater et al. 1994) and sandstone (Zoback et al. 1977; ...
The quality of the soil-cement mix generally appears to be good. A degraded zone was recorded at the top of the pile and it is understood that this was unsupported and damaged during the dynamic load test. There are also areas where lumps of clay were incorporated into the pile. In fact...
For this purpose, specimens containing pozzolans at 5 %, 10 %, and 15 % substitution level (by weight of cement) were subjected to Semi-Circular Bending (SCB) test both under normal and exposure to 5 % sulfuric acid solution conditions. Moreover, water absorption test was conducted on ...
