The crushing process of material particles in a vertical shaft impact (VSI) crusher is highly complex. It is hard to quantify and characterize the crushing behavior of particles. In this work, an experimental setup for active impact crushing is designed and constructed to investigate the crushing behavior of particles in a VSI crusher. Impact crushing experiments are carried …

Microscopic properties of granular materials typically exhibit significant heterogeneity. Realistic particle crushing simulation in granular materials requires the use of model that incorporate the spatial heterogeneity of its microscopic properties.

Conclusions of Shotrock Fragmentation • From the total product cost point of view, there is an optimum shotrock fragmentation. In the case study, the optimum was k 50 ~ 250 mm. •The crushing cost share is almost unchanged with different K 50 values because the blast impacts only on primary crushing •

The drilling efficiency is gradually reduced with the increase of impact times, which can be seen from the curves of specific energy versus impact times. High fragmentation volume and penetration depth mean good drilling effect. With the increase of impact times, the increased crushing effect and the decreased drilling efficiency are contradictory.

The crushing behavior of the G27 series showed that the vast majority of coarse particles are crushed, which was even accompanied by an obvious shift of the peak to the left (see in Fig. 14), and thus the change of D 50 was large, but the size of fine particles produced by crushing were mainly concentrated between the main particle size and the ...

milling process of the processing plant. An increase in the degree of fragmentation gives lower crushing costs as more material passes through as undersize. Liner costs, repair and maintenance, and bridging time will decrease, and the crushing rate will increase. One other major effect of blast performance which has become a major concern in the

Soil possesses discrete characteristics, making the discrete element method (DEM) an advantageous approach for analyzing the dynamic deformation and fragmentation behaviors of soil under external forces (Hoseinian et al., 2022).Kotrocz et al. (2016) utilized the Hertz-Mindlin with bonding contact model to investigate the influence of geometry on the permeation …

In hard rock mining, blasting is the most productive excavation technique applied to fragment in-situ rock to the required size for efficient loading and crushing.

Otherwise, excessive energy consumption in the crushing zone will inevitably reduce the energy available for fracturing rock outside the crushing zone, thereby affecting the fragmentation efficiency. Therefore, the rock-explosive energy matching method based on the reasonable control of the crushing zone can both achieve efficient fragmentation ...
