On the motion dynamics of grinding media in tumbling mills: with application to mineral science &nanomaterials synthesis

The detailed governing equations for the motion of grinding balls in industrial and laboratory -scale tumbling mills were derived which can be used to optimize the mills design and working conditions in order to obtain a desired particle sizing and avoid severe impacts which lead to the extensive wear and/ or breakage of mills shell liners and grinding media and the introduction of unwanted contaminants into the mill contents.
