“…Schmandra [14] presented a general theoretical model of a steel cord belt, allowing for the interactions between the adjacent cables. The literature also mentions implementations of the finite element method in the modeling of a belt along the transition section of the conveyor [15][16][17][18]. The analysis in [17] focused on the influence of the elastic modulus in the longitudinal and transverse directions of the belt-on-belt load non-uniformity.…”

Breaks in the so-called “continuous” (unspliced) belt sections, and not in the spliced areas, are infrequent but do happen in practice. This article presents some aspects, which may account for such breaks in conveyor belts. It indicates the so-called “sensitive points” in design, especially in the transition section of the conveyor belt and in identifying the actual strength of the belt. The presented results include the influence of the width of a belt specimen on the identified belt tensile strength. An increase in the specimen width entails a decrease in the belt strength. The research involved develops a universal theoretical model of the belt on a transition section of a troughed conveyor in which, in the case of steel-cord belts, the belt is composed of cords and layers of rubber, and in the case of a textile belt, of narrow strips. The article also describes geometrical forces in the transition section of the belt and an illustrative analysis of loads acting on the belt. Attention was also devoted to the influence of the belt type on the non-uniform character of loads in the transition section of the conveyor. A replacement of a conveyor belt with a belt having different elastic properties may increase the non-uniformity of belt loads in the transition section of the conveyor, even by 100%.

“…The CKIT Company, in cooperation with the Mining University of Leoben, has developed a testing device for pipe conveyors [8]. Further research is known in the field of determining the real values of contact forces between the conveyor belt and the guide rollers of the pipe conveyor [9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

The paper analyzes static tests of pipe conveyors using various statistical indicators and points out the mutual interactions between individual roller stands. Individual measurements were performed on a physical model of a pipe conveyor, while the methodology and procedure were verified by experiments. 15 repetitions of the given series of measurements were selected, which was a compromise between time demands and statistical requirement. Normal contact forces on the individual rollers of three hexagonal roller stands acting on the conveyor belt for different tension forces in the static state (conveyor belt without movement and without transported material) were evaluated. The LabVIEW Signal Express 2010 program from the National Instruments Company was used to record the measured data. The measurements were evaluated by Microsoft Office Excel.

“…The scope of the research included the linear and nonlinear issue of stability of the Z -profiles subjected to uniform compression. A commercial ABAQUS program [16] was used to develop a discrete model and perform calculations, using the finite element method [17], which currently has a very wide application [18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. The FEM analysis examines the nonlinear stability of these structures in the post-buckling state, where the mode of buckling is forced to ensure their stable behaviour.…”

This paper presents the results of numerical analysis conducted to investigate compressed thin-walled Z-profile weakened by holes with variable geometrical parameters. The specimens made of constructional steel were articulately supported on the edges of the cross-section in the upper and lower parts. The FEM analysis examined the nonlinear stability of these structures in the post-buckling state, where the mode of buckling was forced to ensure their stable behaviour. The numerical computations were performed within the geometrically nonlinear range until the yield point was reached. The investigation involved determining the effect of holes sizes on allowable operational loads. Numerical analysis was conducted with the Abaqus commercial FEM software package.
