In real cases, soils are usually inhomogeneous, and each slope collapse indicates a three-dimensional(3D) nature. Based on a 3D rotational failure mechanism, this work develops an approach to account for the impact of the vertical strength inhomogeneity on the 3D stability of stepped slopes. Seismic actions are taken into account by introducing the concept of a horizontal seismic coefficient. An upper-bound expression for stability factors is derived in the light of the kinematic approach, and the most critical solution is obtained from an optimization programming. In comparison with the previously published solutions, the validity of the proposed method is shown. A sensitivity analysis is carried out to discuss parametric effects on the stability of 3D stepped inhomogeneous slopes.展开更多

It directly effects on the costs of drilling and economics of the subsequent operations of loading, hauling and crushing in mines. Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system （ANFIS） and radial basis function （RBF） show potentials for modeling the behavior of complex nonlinear processes such as those involved in frag- mentation due to blasting of rocks. In this paper we developed ANFIS and RBF methods for modeling of sizing of rock fragmentation due to bench blasting by estimation of 80% passing size （Kso） of Golgohar iron ore mine of Sirjan, lran. Comparing the results of ANFIS and RBF models shows that although the sta- tistical parameters RBF model is acceptable but the ANFIS proposed model is superior and also simpler because the ANFIS model is constructed using only two input parameters while seven input parameters used for construction of the RBF model.展开更多

Surge as one of the sources of this limitation has been studied for many years. In this research, an isolated blade row of compressor rotor is numerically modeled and solved. In order to improve operational limit and postpone the surge occurrence, a stepped blade of RAF6E with higher stall angle of attack is used to investigate the near stall flow behavior. In this study, several location of step on blades are tried and the results are compared with the case with no step on blades. It is shown that, as the step moves toward the leading edge of blades, the effect of delay on surge is reduced and even efficiency is also decreased significantly. By moving the step towards the trailing edge, surge is delayed due to the reattachment of flow after the step. Efficiency is also decreased but not in the order of the previous case.展开更多
