Study on strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity of cemented aeolian sand backfill under multiple factors using response surface method [PDF]
Aeolian sand (AS) has been increasingly used to prepare cemented AS backfill (CASB) for coal mining. Although strength is an important determinant of the CASB performance, existing research on the CASB has not addressed the effects of multi-factor ...
