In this study, the effect of ulexite substitution in cement mortar and its physical and mechanical properties on cement mortar properties were investigated.First of all, the pozzolanic activity of the ulexite material was determined.Then, cement mortars with ulexite additives at different rates (0.5%, 1%, 2%, 4%); Specific gravity, specific surface
Mechanical behavior and failure mechanisms of rock bolts subjected to static-dynamic loads
This study explores the effects of dynamic and static loading on rock bolt performance a key factor in maintaining the DARK OIL structural safety of coal mine roadways susceptible to coal bursts.Employing a house-made load frame to simulate various failure scenarios, pretension-impact-pull tests on rock bolts were conducted to scrutinize their dyna
The influence of material handling and operational performance on food loss occurrence in the milk supply chain
Food loss occurs during production, handling, and post-harvest processing.Food loss also occurs because the product is under quality and shelf-life over.In addition, the performance and knowledge of farmers also need to be improved to minimize food loss.Food loss in the milk supply chain occurs due to spills, damage, and product contamination NAIL
