Numerical validation of compressive strength prediction for hollow concrete blocks
The results of a numerical modeling program to evaluate the behavior of hollow concrete blocks under uniaxial compression are addressed. It has been considered appropriate to use interface elements to represent the confinement effect at the top and bottom of blocks. The response of the numerical simulations is compared with experimental data of masonry units. Laboratory tests were carried out u...
متن کاملThermal-insulation performance of low density polyethylene (LDPE) foams: Comparison between two radiation thermal conductivity models
The loss of energy especially in industrial and residential buildings is one of the main reasons of increased energy consumption. Improving the thermal insulation properties of materials is a fundamental method for reducing the energy losses. Polymeric foams are introduced as materials with excellent thermal insulation properties for this purpose. In the present study, a deep theoretical invest...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) High Pressure Tubular Reactor
Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is produced by free radical polymerization. Industrially, LDPE polymerization process is usually carried out in a continuous mode (tubular or autoclave reactors) at high pressures (1300-3400 atm) and temperatures (50-340 0 C). LDPE exhibits a number of desirable properties, including high tensile strength, flexibility, high impact resistance, low crystallinity, l...
متن کاملGrafting of Acrylamide to Low Density Polyethylene During Melt Processing
Acrylamide was grafted in low density polyethylene during melt processing in the presence of a free radical initiator using a torque rheometer in a closed system. Effects of processing time, acrylamide and benzoyl peroxide concentrations were studied. FTIR studies revealed that the degree of grafting increased by an increase in acrylamide concentration. Maximum grafting was obtained at 7 mi...
متن کاملCatalytic conversion of waste low density polyethylene into fuel oil
Waste Low density polyethylenes (LDPE) represent a source of energy and valuablechemicals, were pyrolysed catalytically in a batch reactor under atmospheric pressure. Calciumcarbide was used as a catalyst to explore its effect on pyrolysis product distribution. The effect oftemperature, amount of catalyst and time on the yields of the pyrolysed products wasinvestigated. The effect of catalyst o...
