Rock material particle size and its correlation with the point load test index

Minerva, 2022
Abstract: This work proposes the methodology to obtain a correlation between the particle size of the rock material and the point load test index (Is 50), in order to characterize the materials, present in mining projects in terms of resistance. For a correct development of mining activities, both open pit (quarries) and underground (mines), it is ...

Reproducibility and relative validity of dietary glycaemic index and glycaemic load assessed by the food-frequency questionnaire used in the Dutch cohorts of the European prospective investigation into Cancer and Nutrition [PDF]

, 2009
Limited information is available on the reproducibility and validity of dietary glycaemic index (GI) and glycaemic load (GL) estimated by habitual diet assessment methods such as FFQ, including the FFQ used in the Dutch cohorts of the European ...

Adhesive friction at the contact between rough surfaces using n-point asperity model

Engineering Science and Technology, an International Journal, 2015
The paper describes a theoretical study of adhesive friction at elastic–plastic contact of rough surfaces based on n-point asperity model. Well defined adhesion index and plasticity index are used to study the prospective situations arising out of ...

The Extra Load Index as a method for comparing the relative economy of load carriage systems. [PDF]

, 2010
The Extra Load Index (ELI) has been proposed as a suitable method of assessing the relative economy of load carriage systems. The purpose of this study was to determine, based on empirical evidence, that the ELI can accommodate variations in both body ...

Characterization of rock material by point load strength index test and direct cut

Minerva, 2021
The objective of this work is to establish a relationship between the cutting time in rocks, determining a speed and the point load strength index test, Is (50), to characterize the rock in terms of resistance and avoid sending samples to laboratories. As a first stage, on andesite samples, 5 x 5 x 10 cm test tubes were made. After the elaboration they

Evidence‐Informed Multidisciplinary Consensus Guidance for the Psychosocial Care of Adolescents With High‐Risk Cancer: Recommendations From the Italian Association of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...

Characterization of Uniaxial Compressive Strength and Point Load Index and Their Correlation in Compact and Porous Building Stones: Insights from the Effects of Stone Heterogeneity

Eng
The point load index (PLI) is a low-cost and rapid test widely used for the indirect evaluation of uniaxial compressive strength (UCS). However, its accuracy in predicting UCS may differ between compact and porous stones.

Nonlinear Buckling of Fixed Functionally Graded Material Arches Under a Locally Uniformly Distributed Radial Load

Frontiers in Materials, 2021
Functionally graded material (FGM) arches may be subjected to a locally radial load and have different material distributions leading to different nonlinear in-plane buckling behavior.

Bridging the Loneliness Gap: Depression, Connectivity, and Isolation in Pediatric Oncology Patients and Their Peers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

Risk assessment of demand response considering wind power generation

The Journal of Engineering, 2018
Demand response can reduce peak load, transfer part of peak load to valley load, and reduce system risk at peak time. In this study, a calculation model of power grid loss risk is proposed, which is suitable for evaluating the risk changes caused by the ...
