Triaxial compression testing of multicomponent geomaterials from quartz-poor (syenitic) systems [PDF]
This paper focuses on mafic microgranular enclaves enclosed in quartz-poor igneous rocks and their effect on strength properties of the rock massif. The study examines host rock–enclave multicomponent geomaterials from enclave-bearing syenitic rocks from

Experimental characterization and modelling of a cavitating centrifugal pump operating in fast start-up conditions [PDF]
The start-up of rocket engine turbopumps is generally performed only in a few seconds. It implies that these pumps reach their nominal operating conditions after only a few rotations.

Механизм твердения бетона в раннем возрасте [PDF]
It is known that the control method of hydration heat and curing temperature, which arise during the construction process of cement concrete structure, exercises great influence on compressive strength, durability, water-tightness and long-term ...

The rebound hammer test of concrete can provide an alternative to drilled core tests for estimating the in-situ compressive strength of concrete. The variability of concrete strength is recognised during the strength assessment and the design strength of concrete is specified as its characteristic compressive strength by taking the variability of the ...

Procedure for Impact Testing of Fused Recycled Glass [PDF]
Recycled glass material is made from hundred percent recycled bottle glass and consume less energy than re-melt technology. It also uses no additives in the manufacturing process allowing the recycled glass material, in principal, to go back to the ...
