In the following paper results of the investigation of the “Bauschinger effect” are presented. It was done by model which was made in ABAQUS and observed from deep rolling simulation results of residual stresses. Later, comparison of the results are presented by variation of forces and overlapping factor. Deep rolling (DR) is a mechanic...

The results of two light optical tomographies (LOT) of two-phase steels are presented and compared in this paper. Two-phase steels show a microstructure consisting of a carbon-rich second phase and a ferritic matrix. In this work, microstructures are compared with a martensitic and a bainitic second phase. Tomographies are very important for materi...

This paper describes a few examples of the recovery of manganese from steel slag and dust by using different technologies based on acid leaching.Reductive leaching in sulfuric acid (H2SO4) for recovery of manganese from electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) was represented. Recovery of manganese and iron was increased with increasing in the sulfuric aci...

The microscope has become a more common tool in the cement industry. Evaluation of clinker using microscopy is a powerful technique that can help improve clinker production and cement quality. The key to using the microscopy is understanding the process of clinker production namely how raw materials are transformed into clinker. These transformatio...

Clinker dust or cement kiln dust (CKD) is fine granulated material which generate during the thermal treatment of raw meal and during the clinker cooling process. By applying different methods in certain stages of the technological process it is possible to extract the mentioned dust. The chemical composition of the clinker dust depends on type and...

The regulations on air quality in Bosnia and Herzegovina are based on European Union regulations and they rely on defined limits for concentrations of certain pollutants. Although the law stipulates that the public must be informed on the quality of environmental parameters in a clear, simple and easily understandable manner, this is not the case i...

Urban environments are subject to various pollutions where, among other things, acoustic pollution. Consequently, the study of acoustic pollution is an issue that is addressed in several aspects: economic, political and scientific / research.In this paper we propose a simulation model through the Matlab / Simulink software that shows the effect of ...

Ductile iron is a pseudo-binary alloy of iron and carbon where the carbon is precipated in the form of nodules (spherical) graphite. The ductile iron, thanks to the specific form of graphite, has a good combination of properties such as elongation, yield strength, good toughness, castability and mechanical workability. Except of grap...

For the production of self-compacting concrete for a specific application, with desired properties in fresh and hardened state, it is necessary to combine the constituent materials in the optimum proportions. The proportioning of self-compacting concrete has to start with defining the required properties. For a particular application, a self-compac...
