Fragmentation mechanism of low-grade hematite ore in a high pressure grinding roll

The fragmentation mechanism of low-grade hematite ore in a high pressure grinding roll(HPGR) was studied based on the characteristics of comminuted products at different specific pressure levels. The major properties included the reduction ratio, liberation, specific surface energy, and specific surface area. The results showed that the fracture of low-grade hematite ore in HPGR was an interactive dynamic process in which the interaction between coarse particles of gangue minerals and fine particles of valuable minerals was alternately continuous with increased compactness and compacting strength of materials. Within a range of 2.8–4.4 N/mm^2, valuable minerals were crushed after preferentially absorbing energy, whereas gangue minerals were not completely crushed and only acted as an energy transfer medium. Within a range of 4.4–5.2 N/mm^2, gangue minerals were adequately crushed after absorbing the remaining energy, whereas preferentially crushed valuable minerals acted as an energy transfer medium. Within a range of 5.2–6.0 N/mm^2 range, the low-grade hematite ore was not further comminuted because of the "size effect" on the strength of materials, and the comminution effect of materials became stable.

Spatio-temporal Fragmentation of Leisure Activities in Information Era： Empirical Evidence from Nanjing, China

Activity fragmentation provides a new approach for understanding the transformation of urban space and function in the information era. Numerous theoretical and empirical studies have been conducted on activity fragmentation, but few studies have focused on the fragmentation of leisure activities. This study was intended to extend the extant literature by: 1) analysing the spatio-temporal fragmentation of physical and virtual leisure activities by using a dataset collected in Nanjing, China, and 2) evaluating the reasons of leisure activity fragmentation, as well as the potential spatial effect of activity fragmentation. The results indicated that virtual leisure activities are more fragmented than physical leisure activities, but the fragmentation of physical and virtual leisure activities varies on weekday and weekend, as well as in various locations and urban districts. In addition, the results suggested that sociodemographic factors and information and communication technology(ICT) variables distinctly affect the fragmentation of leisure activities. Meanwhile, the fragmentation of virtual leisure activities may enhance the transformation of traditional urban space by reallocating leisure activity times and locations.

Comparative Studies on Mass Spectrometric Fragmentation of Linear Chiral Secondary Alcohols (R)-1-(4-Alkylphenyl) and (R)-1-(4-Alkoxyphenyl/Alkylthiophenyl) Alcohols

Mass spectrometric behaviour of （R） -1- （ 4-alkylphenyl ） alcohols, 1- （4-alkoxylphenyl） alcohols, and 1- （4-alkylthiophenyl） alcohols were studied with the aid of mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy spectrometry under electron impact ionization. All the title compounds show a tendency to eliminate a water molecule to form alkene ions and undergo an a-cleavago to produce protonated aldehyde ions by the loss of alkyl radicals. Except these two common fragment ions, they also show some different fragmentations due to with or without oxy/thioether-linkage.

Crystal Structure and Mass Spectrometric Fragmentation Behavior of Eprosartan

The crystal structure determination and mass spectrometric fragmentation analysis of the medicinal ingredient eprosartan （4-[2-butyl-5-（2-carboxy-3-thiophen-2-yl-propenyl）-imidazol-l-ylmethyl]-benzoic acid） are presented. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that the colorless transparent crystal of eprosartan is of monoclinic system, space group P2/c with a = 16.1861（15）, b = 10.9813（12）, c = 28.610（3） A, β = 118.452（2）°, Z = 4, V= 4471.1（8） A3, Dc = 1.288 g/cm3,μ（MoKα） = 0.178 mm^-1 and F（000） = 1831. The independent part of the unit cell contains two eprosartan molecules and one unordered H2O molecule in the crystal structure which is fixed by inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The product ions in electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry （ESI-MSn） displays the protonated eprosartan dissociated in three competitive pathways and the fragmentation mechanism is proposed and supported by the FTICRMSn results.

Stress distribution and its influencing factors of bottom-hole rock in underbalanced drilling

The underbalanced drilling has been widely used due to its advantages of high drilling efficiency and low cost etc., especially for hard formation drilling. These advantages, however, are closely related to the stress state of the bottom-hole rock; therefore, it is significant to research the stress distribution of bottom-hole rock for the correct understanding of the mechanism of rock fragmentation and high penetration rate. The stress condition of bottom-hole rock is very complicated while under the co-action of overburden pressure, horizontal in-situ stresses, drilling mud pressure, pore pressure and temperature etc. In this paper, the fully coupled simulation model is established and the effects of overburden pressure, horizontal in-situ stresses, drilling mud pressure, pore pressure and temperature on stress distribution of bottom-hole rock are studied. The research shows that： in air drilling, as the well depth increases, the more easily the bottom-hole rock is broken; the mud pressure has a great effect on the bottom hole rock. The bigger the mud pressure is, the more difficult to break the bottom-hole rock; the max principle stress of the bottom-hole increased with the increasing of mud pressure, well depth and temperature difference. The bottom-hole rock can be divided into 3 regions respectively according to the stress state, 3 direction stretch zone, 2 direction compression area and 3 direction compression zone; the corresponding fragmentation degree of difficulty is easily, normally and hardly.

A new diamond bit for extra-hard, compact and nonabrasive rock formation

A new impregnated diamond bit was designed to solve the slipping problem when impregnated diamond bit was used for extra-hard, compact, and nonabrasive rock formation. Adding Si C grits into matrix, Si C grits can easily be exfoliated from the surface of the matrix due to weak holding-force with matrix, which made the surface non-smooth. Three Ф36/24 mm laboratorial bits were manufactured to conduct a laboratory drilling test on zirconiacorundum refractory brick. The laboratory drilling test indicates that the abrasive resistance of the bit work layer is proportional to the Si C concentation. The higher the concentration, the weaker the abrasive resistance of matrix. The new impregnated diamond bit was applied to a mining area drilling construction in Jiangxi province, China. Field drilling application indicates that the ROP(rate of penetration) of the new bit is approximately two to three times that of the common bits. Compared with the common bits, the surface of the new bit has typical abrasive wear characteristics,and the metabolic rate of the diamond can be well matched to the wear rate of the matrix.

Photodissociation of cyclopentanone (C5H8O) and cyclohexanone (C6H10O) was studied with 800nm, 50fs laser pulse at intensities of 5.0 - 13.0x10(13) W/cm(2). A time of flight mass spectrometer was employed to detect the ion signals. Parent ions dominated at lower laser intensities. Fragmentation of the parent ions increases with increasing laser intensity and molecular size. The fragmentation mechanism was discussed.

Discussion on the Application of LS-DYNA in Superfine Grinding of Wheat Bran

Superfine grinding, involving the fragmentation mechanism of wheat bran cell tissue, is being employed by milling industry. In order to determine the effect of wheat bran cell tissue on the fragmentation mechanism when using superfine grinding,a technical scheme of the nonlinear finite element numerical simulation method based on LS-DYNA is proposed in this paper.The physiological characteristics of wheat bran structural layers including outer pericarp, intermediate layer and aleurone layer are examined first, and then the mechanical properties of wheat bran structural layers and their effects on the super fine grinding process are analyzed. Secondly, the explicit time integration algorithm of LS-DYNA is introduced, and the application feasibility of LS-DYNA in the analysis of wheat bran superfine grinding mechanism is discussed. Finally, the specific application of LS-DYNA in the determination of grinding form and load, the selection and design of the grinding media and the selection of grinding temperature are discussed in detail in the process of superfine grinding for wheat bran cell tissue. The above research provides a theoretical basis for selecting and developing the equipment and technology suitable for wheat bran superfine grinding, and lays a theoretical foundation for enhancing the quality and efficiency of wheat bran superfine grinding.

Structural Effect on Electron Impact Decomposition of 1,3-and 1,4-Cyclohexane Dinitrites

Alkyl dinitrites have at-tracted attention as an im-portant type of nitrosating agent and a pollution source in atmosphere.The reac-tivity and chemistry of alkyl dinitrites induced by the two ONO functional groups are relatively unknown.In this work,decompositions of 1,3-cyclohexane dinitrite and 1,4-cyclohexane dinitrite are studied by electron impact ionization mass spectroscopy(EI-MS).Apart from NO^(+)(m=z=30),fragment ions m=z=43 and 71 are the most abundant for the 1,3-isomer.On the other hand,fragments m=z=29,57,85,and 97 stand out in the EI-MS spectrum of 1,4-isomer.Possible dissociation mechanisms of the two dinitrites are proposed by theoretical calculations.The results reveal that the ring-opening of 1,3-cyclohexane dinitrite mainly starts from the intermediate ion(M-NO)^(+)by cleavage of twoαC-βC bonds.For 1,4-cyclohexane dinitrite,in addition to the decomposition via intermediate(M-NO)^(+),cleavage ofβC-βC bonds can occur directly from the parent cation(M)^(+).The results will help to understand the structural related chemistry of alkyl dinitrites in atmosphere and in NO transfer process.

D^(*) jet fragmentation function paradox and combination mechanism

In the framework of the perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics factorization,the production of a hadron includes contributions from fragmentation as well as combination,with the latter being of higher twist.In particular,the heavy meson production can be via the combination of a heavy quark with a light one,and the cross section can be factorized to be the convolution of the combination matrix element,the light quark distribution function,and the hard partonic sub-cross section of the heavy quark production.The partonic distribution and the combination matrix element are functions of a scaling variable,respectively,which is the momentum fraction of the corresponding quark with respect to the heavy meson.We studied the D^(*±)production in jet via combination in pp collision at the LHC.The total result is comparable with the experimental data.The combination matrix elements can be further studied in various hadron production processes.

Mass spectrometric studies of cis- and trans-1a,3-disubstituted-1, 1-dichloro-4-formyl-1a ,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1H-azirino [ 1,2-a] [1,5] benzodiazepines

The mass spectrometric behaviour of four cis- and trans-1a, 3-disuhsdtuted-1,1-dichloro-4-formyl-1a,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1H-azirino[1, 2-a] [1, 5]benzodiazepines has been studied with the aid of mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectrometry and exact mass measurements under electron impact ionization. All compounds show a tendency to eliminate a chlorine atom from the aziridine ring, and then eliminate a neutral propene or styrene from the diazepine ring to yield azirino[1, 2b][1,3] benzimidazole ions. These azirino[1,2-a][1,5]benzodiazepines can also eliminate HCl, or Cl plus HCl simultaneously to undergo a ring enlargement rearrangement to yield 1,6-benzodiazocine ions, which further lose small molecular fragments, propyne or phenylacetylene, with rearrangement to give quinoxaline ions.
