Micropillar compression testing of powders

Compression Physics of Pharmaceutical Powders: a Review

Due to various advantages such as high-precision dosing, manufacturing efficiency and patient compliance helped making tablets the most popular dosage forms among all available dosages forms. Compaction, which is an essential manufacturing step in the manufacture of tablets, mainly includes compression (i.e. reduction of volume of the powder under consideration and particle rearrangement) and c...

Electrical Conductivity of Chemically Reduced Graphene Powders under Compression

Carbon materials such as graphite and graphene exhibit high electrical conductivity. We examined the electrical conductivity of synthetic and natural graphene powders after the chemical reduction of synthetic and natural graphite oxide from synthetic and natural graphite. The trend of electrical conductivity of both graphene (synthetic and natural) was compared with different graphite materials...

behavior of rockfill materials in triaxial compression testing

this paper studies thoroughly and deeply the results of about one hundred triaxial compression tests on thirty types of rockfill materials. the materials are categorized in accordance with their particles shape (angular / rounded) and gradation characteristics. the main tool of the study is the hyperbolic model developed by duncan and chang. the focus of the study is on the variations of deform...

Evaluation of Compression Testing and Compression Failure Modes of Paperboard

Development of a compression system dynamic simulation code for testing and designing of anti-surge control system

In recent years, several research activities have been conducted to develop knowledge in analysis, design and optimization of compressor anti-surge control system. Since the anti-surge control testing on a full-scale compressor is limited to possible consequences of failure, and also the experimental facility can be expensive to set up control strategies and logic, design process often involves...
