Optical properties, inclusions, and chemical composition of blue corundum from the Stazh-2 deposit, South-Western Pamir by A. K. Litvinenko, D. B. Vandanova, O. A. Shilova, S. B. Pakhomova

“…In terms of its geological position, the deposit can be classified as a contact-reaction (bimetasomatic) deposit formed in the contacts of granite veins and magnesites, being comparable to the world-famous Kashmir Sumjam deposit. During its study at the end of the last century, no mineralogical studies of blue corundum were conducted using precision methods, such as IR, Raman and absorption spectra, DiamindView luminescence, in order to establish patterns in color distribution, solid and gas-liquid inclusions, deformations and chemical composition. …”

Modelling of circumferential surface topography of grinding wheel with random distribution of circular truncated cone abrasive grains by Xiaodong CHEN, Dexiang WANG, Feng GUO, Xinming LI, Jingliang JIANG

“…The position distribution of abrasive particles on the surface of the grinding wheel is in accordance with the random distribution characteristics, and the surface topography of the grinding wheel produces blocky and narrow strip-shaped gap areas. (2) The total number of abrasive grains calculated theoretically is 9 342, while the total number of abrasive grains generated in the model is 8 626, with a relative error between the two of only 7.66%. (3) The size distribution of the abrasive grains and the protrusion height distribution of the abrasive grains in the model are statistically analyzed, and it is found that the distribution patterns are consistent with the normal distribution curve set in the modeling.ConclusionsThe abrasive grain shape can be set to a truncated cone with a cone angle of 45°, and the size of the truncated cone abrasive grains can be converted from spherical abrasive grains based on the principle of volume invariance, which aligns with the actual abrasive grain shapes observed in real grinding wheels during the grinding process. …”
