Why cross head speed is very low in ASTM D7264 when compared with ASTM D790 for flexural testing of polymer composites ?

As per ASTM D7264 cross head speed is 1 mm/mm. As per ASTM D790, when we use the equation for calculating cross head speed = Z*L*L/(6*d) for thickness d of 5.4 mm and Z to be taken as 0.01, cross head speed is 2.3 mm/mm.

because the two standards are designed with different testing philosophies and material applications in mind, despite both being used for flexural testing of polymer composites.

How to remove exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) soot deposition by using nanomaterials coatings?

Question

Be the first to answer

Asked 10 April 2025

Meenaketan Sethi

Carbonaceous soot deposition is happening at exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). Please tell me how to avoid/remove soot deposition by the help of coatings, which can sustain at least 400 degree Celcius. Some nanomaterials also I want to mix in order to enhance the durability of the coatings. Please suggest your expertise in this matter.

Thank you.

How does high collector concentration affect the expected correlation between pH, collector type, and floatability in fine-particle flotation?

Question

Asked 6 March 2025

Claudia Johana Beltran

I have been evaluating collector performance under different pH conditions using pure minerals (Zinc Ferrite, Zinc Oxide, Hematite, and Magnetite) with a particle size of <20 µm. The experiments were conducted in a Smith-Partridge tube for microflotation. I observed unexpected trends regarding the effect of pH and collector type (cationic or anionic) on floatability. These trends do not align with zeta potential measurements or the expected behavior reported in the literature.

After reviewing previous studies, I realized that the "optimal" collector concentration I used (1×10⁻³ M) is about ten times higher than what is typically reported for similar systems. I am concerned that this could cause reagent oversaturation, potentially altering the interaction between collectors and mineral surfaces and their molecular or ionic forms.

Could excessive collector concentration lead to unexpected flotation behavior in fine-particle systems by modifying the adsorption mechanism or surface charge? Have others encountered similar discrepancies, and how did you address them?

I am simultating compression test of pottery clay using mohr coulomb model in abaqus, is there any setup we do that cause element failure?

Sabal Panthee

I want to see how crack forms using mohr coulomb model in abaqus. I want to know how we can see the crack or element gets deleted once stress level is reached. Just like in concrete damage plasticity model we use failure criteria, Type = strain. Is there anyway we do it similarly in mohr coulomb plasticity model. Your help is greatly appreciated.
