Despite the popularity of the conveyor-belt model for portraying the airflow through midlatitude cyclones, questions arise as to the path of the cold conveyor belt, the lower-tropospheric airflow poleward of and underneath the warm front. Some studies, beginning with Carlson’s analysis of the eastern U.S. cyclone of 5 December 1977, depict the cold conveyor belt moving westward, reaching the no...

The design and development objective of the entire belt conveyor control system is to minimize physical labor, which can make full use of other energy and variety of information other than manpower operation so as to increase efficiency and reduce accidents. This paper makes an in-depth analysis of implementation possibilities and requirements of the ARM-based monitoring of belt conveyor system...

In this research, we studied the fault recognition algorithm of steel cord conveyor belt, and obtained the wire ropes image by adopting the detection system of steel cord conveyor belt, so that the fault recognition algorithm of steel cord conveyor belt was proposed based on Fruit fly optimization algorithm. As we know that the fruit fly optimization algorithm is used for fault detection of the...

We propose a method of conveyor belt longitudinal tear dynamic line edge detection based on CCD digital image processing. CCD camera captured video frames of conveyor belt at a certain frequency, we first applied median noise filtering and binarization to preprocessing the motion images of conveyor belt on the condition that they were not degenerative. Then Canny edge detection operator detecte...

Abstract—Belt conveyors play an important role in continuous dry bulk material transport, especially at the mining industry. Speed control is expected to reduce the energy consumption of belt conveyors. Transient operation is the operation of increasing or decreasing conveyor speed for speed control. According to literature review, current research rarely takes the conveyor dynamics in transien...

Rubber belt not only is one of the key components of belt conveyor, but also affects the overall performance of the core part. Research on dynamics analysis of large conveyor not only helps to improve the reliability and design level, but also can guide the rational selection of conveyor safety factor, and effectively reduce the cost of the conveyor belt. Based on unique viscoelastic properties...

Belt conveyor system is the transportation of material from one location to another location. Belt conveyor has high load carrying capacity (upto 30000 t/h), large length of conveying path (upto 3-4 km), simple design, easy maintenance and high reliability of operation. Belt conveyor system is also used various industries such as the material transport in foundry shop like supply and distributi...

To address deficiencies in the process of fault diagnosis of belt conveyor, this study uses a BP neural network algorithm combined with fuzzy theory to provide an intelligent fault diagnosis method for belt conveyor and to establish a BP neural network fault diagnosis model with a predictive function. Matlab is used to simulate the fuzzy BP neural network fault diagnosis of the belt conveyor. R...

Many problems which occur with belt conveyors can be attributed to system dynamics and the associated variations in belt tension. Material spillage, belt and splice failure, belt lift-off in vertical curves and poor tracking are a few examples of situations where knowledge of the dynamic tensions would be of benefit in eliminating a problem. The difficulty is that measuring dynamic tension at a...
