A new lattice Boltzmann model within the framework of D2Q9 lattices for Bingham plastics is proposed. The essence of the present model lies in incorporation of the effect of local shear rate into the lattice equilibrium distribution function. With this arrangement, particle distribution...

15% the zinc production costs vary between 482 and 245 $/t for the medium-term scenario and between 312 and 146 $/t for … the long-term scenario, respectively. These costs do not account for the zinc oxide input material. In addition, a risk … and the probability distribution of the zinc production cost was calculated by means of a Monte-Carlo method. The expected …

The famous 1972 study 'Limits to growth' (LtG) created global controversy about its dire predictions for the 21st century - e.g., global population crash, rampant pollution and resource depletion. Amongst some of the most fervent critics was the mining industry, who argued that mineral-metals...
