Whilst numerical modelling is commonly used for simulation to check the design of water conveyance, sluicing and spillway structure design, the numerical modelling has rarely been compared with the physical model tests. The objective of this research pre...

The hand-held power sander is a frequently used tool in woodworking, and it is a significant source of risk in terms of dust, vibration, and, notably, noise. The purpose of a hand-held power sander manufacturer?s noise emission statement is to provide in...

Gas from natural gas hydrate (NGH) is priced competitively with gas prices. Most marine NGH is stored in low cementing strata, which easily cause sand production problems, restricting the commercial production and environmental safety of NGH?s developmen...

We hypothesized that the type of wood, in combination with the grit size of sandpapers, would affect sanding efficiency. Fixed factors were used in the experiment (a belt sander with pressure p = 3828 Pa, and a belt speed of vs = 14.5 m/s) as well as var...
