This book intends to summarize the current situation at home and abroad about the treatment and consumption of various metallurgical wastes and domestic waste fertilizers and their products through metallurgical processes. It collects the process characteristics of the whole metallurgical process from sintering, blast furnace, electric furnace, converter, and other aspects, as well as the process parameters for treating various solid wastes, solves the problems that may be encountered in the relevant processes, and puts forward corresponding solutions, including the transformation of the...

This book is a platform to publish new progress in the field of materials and technologies that can offer significant developments with the possibility of changing the future. These emerging developments will change the way we live now at an unprecedented pace across our society. It is important to note that such modern developments are no longer restricted to a single discipline, but are the outcome of a multidisciplinary approach, which combines many different engineering disciplines. This book explores the new technology landscape that will have the direct impact on production-related...

This textbook describes the fundamentals of the phenomena of fluid dynamics in the context of engineering instances. It is designed to replace introductory books and notes on the subject for first-level engineering courses as well as higher-level courses or for professional use. The use of this book requires the basic knowledge of mathematics and physics normally delivered in the early years of undergraduate study. However, the extensive use of examples and solved exercises proposes a parallel intuitive route to understanding the necessary mathematical formalisms. It proves that a new...

This book extensively covers rock mechanics and engineering, playing a vital role in mining, geological, and civil applications. It explores the stability, failure, and behavior of rock masses, offering control and prediction methods. Fundamental concepts, stress and strain analyses, failure theories, and rock characteristics are addressed, essential for safety in mining and construction. Applications like geological hazard assessment, slope stability, and foundation design demonstrate its significance in civil and geological engineering. The book's structured approach includes an overview...

The book focuses primarily on experimental and analytical methods developed over many years to characterize the deformation and fracture of brittle materials under dynamic loading conditions. The dynamic response of brittle materials is highly nonlinear and complex, with practical applications ranging from explosive excavation of rocks to the design of ceramic armor and the protection of spacecraft windows from meteor impacts. It provides a comprehensive exploration of the challenges and methodologies involved in impact experiments and computational modeling of brittle solids under shock...

The Water Reactor Fuel Performance Meeting (WRFPM) held in Asia has merged with TopFuel in Europe and LWR Fuel Performance in the United States to form the globally most influential conference in the field of nuclear fuel research. WRFPM2023 is organized by Chinese Nuclear Society (CNS) in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Society of Japan (AESJ), Korean Nuclear Society (KNS), European Nuclear Society (ENS), American Nuclear Society (ANS), the Interna-tional Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) with the support from China Nuclear Energy In¬dustry Corporation (CNEIC) and TVEL.
