Impact damage to the middle trough of a scraper conveyor based ... PLOS
The middle trough serves as a key part of a scraper conveyor. During the working process, falling raw coal lands on the middle plate of the trough, causing impact damage. This study aims to find the optimal working condition combination to minimize impact damage to the middle trough based on the engineering discrete element method (EDEM) and orthogonal matrix analysis (OMA). In EDEM software ...
