Abstract: A monitoring method of a steelmaking process in a steelmaking vessel, wherein matters Mn, each having its respective properties PMn, are charged into said steelmaking vessel so as to produce a liquid steel and a slag.

Abstract: A method of conducting a material removal operation using a grinding system including moving an abrasive article relative to a workpiece, detecting a change in a dimension of the abrasive article during moving, and reducing resonance vibrations in the grinding system.

Abstract: In one aspect, a process for roll grinding employs a grinding wheel that is porous and permeable. In another aspect, a process for grinding mill rolls includes dressing the grinding wheel as the wheel traverses the surface of a mill roll. Other aspects relate to a system, e.g., a mill roll grinding machine, or parts thereof, in which a dressing tool contacts the wheel as the wheel grinds the surface of the mill roll. In specific examples, the wheel and a rotary dressing tool are maintained in contact as the wheel traverses the surface of the mill roll.
