Bringing together the leading European expertise in behaviour and design of silos, this important new book is an essential reference source for all concerned with current problems and developments in silo technology. Silos are used in an enormous range of industries and the handling characteristics of many industrial materials require different approaches for successful, economical installations. For the first time, the many approaches taken by specialists in different fields are brought together in a unified way so that common problems can be addressed.
This book is the result of a four-year European project - Concerted Action - Silos - funded under the Brite Euram programme which has involved over 100 expert engineers and researchers from all over Europe, in seven working groups.
Foreword Part 1: Silo Flow. Part 2: Concrete Structures. Part 3: Metal Structures. Part 4: Numerical simulation of particulate solids. Part 5: Silo Tests. Part 6: Experimental Techniques. Part 7: Research for Industry. Index.
