Companion method of analysis and forecasting method applied for ceramic products'' deforming when burning
The companion method of analysis is offered in the article to forecast the ceramic production deformation induced by own weight (gravity force) in course of burning. The basis of this analysis consists of thin walled tubes torsion method, finite-element modeling method, calibration technique including the testing of the sample's material at benching through an angle, and the numerical solution validation method. The companion analysis is applicable to forecast the deformation of both thin-walled and solid items produced out of the materials which rheology is founded on viscose and/or diffusion flow mechanisms.
