Effect of Feed Rock Size Distribution on Crusher Performance

If the ore feed to any gyratory or jaw crusher consisted entirely of large cubes or spheres of a size that would just barely enter the crushing chamber, the crusher could not be expected to produce anything like its normal rated capacity because the upper part of the crusher could not shatter the large pieces enough to keep the rest of the crushing chamber busy.

AVO effects of a hydrocarbon source‐rock layer

The organic content of petroleum source‐rock layers can be determined from seismic data with a suitable AVO technique. Since the source rock has a layered structure, the best forward model is a transversely isotropic layer between two isotropic half‐spaces, parameterized by the layer thickness and the amount of organic material. This limited number of parameters is essential …
