1. Material characterization
In keeping with our bibliographic sources and so as not to disrupt the writing of experimental equations, we retain the units used: the inch (′′), or inch (in); the foot, or foot (ft); the short ton, or short ton (sht); and the pound (lb).
However, it should be remembered that :
• 1 inch = 1 inch = 2.54 cm
• 1 foot = 1 foot = 30.48 cm
• 1 sht = 0.907 t
• 1 pound = 0.4536 kg
The determination of certain physical properties of the materials to be fragmented enables a judicious choice of fragmentation equipment. These properties are characterized by indices such as Hardgrove's brittleness index, Bond's energy...
