Influence of Atmospheric Refraction on Horizontal Angle Surveying

Side-refraction is the main error source of horizontal angle surveying, but it has little influence on the sides by analyzing the influence of atmospheric-infraction on the ultrahigh-precision side and angle surveying. Choosing oriented direction is crucial to distance and angle measurement in triangulateration network. How to select the oriented direction during angle measurement is presented, and the means to check the quality of auto-surveying with Georobot is brought forward as well. At last some solutions to reduce the influence of side-refraction while disposing and surveying ultrahigh-precision triangulateration network are put forward.

The Use of Edge Enhancement Methods and Euler Deconvolution to Estimate an Ore Deposit Depth from Gravity Data

The Hercynian massif of the central Jebilet (Morocco) is characterized by the outcrop of many gossans with great economic importance. This work focuses on interpreting gravity data of Benslimane gossan, located about thirty kilometres to the North-West of Marrakech. The residual gravity map of the study area highlights several anomalies which coincide with the mining and geological contexts. Applying edge detection methods, for example, tilt angle derivative (TDR), the total horizontal derivative of the tilt angle derivative (HDR_TDR) and the 3D Euler deconvolution, allowed us to estimate the depth of the Benslimane deposit. As a result, the average depth of the ore deposit was estimated to exceed 200 m. The results are promising, and the processing methods must be applied to the other gossan in the Jebilet massif for further exploration studies.

Robust multi-objective optimization of rolling schedule for tandem cold rolling based on evolutionary direction differential evolution algorithm

According to the actual requirements,profile and rolling energy consumption are selected as objective functions of rolling schedule optimization for tandem cold rolling.Because of mechanical wear,roll diameter has some uncertainty during the rolling process,ignoring which will cause poor robustness of rolling schedule.In order to solve this problem,a robust multi-objective optimization model of rolling schedule for tandem cold rolling was established.A differential evolution algorithm based on the evolutionary direction was proposed.The algorithm calculated the horizontal angle of the vector,which was used to choose mutation vector.The chosen vector contained converging direction and it changed the random mutation operation in differential evolution algorithm.Efficiency of the proposed algorithm was verified by two benchmarks.Meanwhile,in order to ensure that delivery thicknesses have descending order like actual rolling schedule during evolution,a modified Latin Hypercube Sampling process was proposed.Finally,the proposed algorithm was applied to the model above.Results showed that profile was improved and rolling energy consumption was reduced compared with the actual rolling schedule.Meanwhile,robustness of solutions was ensured.

Physical simulation of mixing on a C-H2 smelting reduction reactor with different tracer feeding positions

With the growing demand for energy saving,emission reduction,and green metallurgy,we had designed a new C-H2 smelting reduction reactor.In order to solve the key problem that the heat transfer efficiency from high temperature oxidation zone in upper region to low temperature reduction zone in lower region is low in traditional metallurgical reduction reactor,a water simulation was adopted to optimize the mean residence time and to improve the transmission efficiency within the reactor.According to the modified Froude similarity,a water model experimental reactor with a ratio of 1:1 to the prototype was constructed.In the prototype,the feed port was used to feed preheated ore and flux.In order to simulate the effect of different feeding positions of the tracer on the mixing behavior in the molten pool,four points of tracer feeding position were arranged for a systematic study.At the same time,based on double-row side nozzle with thick slag layer in a C-H2 smelting reduction reactor,nine influencing factors,including relative angle between upper and lower side nozzles,were studied.The experimental results showed that the tracer feeding position had a great influence on the mean residence time,and the relative angle also had a great influence on tracer feeding position.Finally,through comprehensive analysis,the optimal condition parameters were obtained under different tracer feeding positions.These results provide valuable help for the design and optimization of the C-H2 smelting reduction reactor.
