The article presents analytical dependences for the maximum permissible bending radius of the conveyor belt in the longitudinal direction, in which the shape of the gutter is lost in areas with low tension, depending on the design and physical and mechanical properties of the belt. The results of calculations based on these dependencies for a number of modern rubber-fabric and rubber-rope belts are presented. The results obtained can be applied to determine the minimum allowable belt tension and the maximum allowable belt deflection, which usually occur in the loading zone of the conveyor and are the starting value when constructing a tension diagram in the process of traction calculation of the conveyor. They are also useful for determining the parameters of transition sections of conveyor belts.

Abstract The goal of the current study was to investigate the physical and mechanical properties of mycowood as a high quality tone-wood, obtained from Norway spruce by treatment of the white rot fungus Physisporinus vitreus as a function of the treatment time. In focus was the stiffness to weight ratio, which is often considered a main criterion for tone-wood selection. The vibro-mechanical properties were tested by non-destructive methods. The change of color and density were also measured after 4–12 months of fungal incubation. Density decreased up to 5% after 12 months of fungal treatment. Sound velocity was measured in small size specimens by means of the free-free vibration approach, while in large specimens the air-coupled ultrasound method was applied. The two techniques gave similar results and indicated that the sound velocity decreased in mycowood. Internal damping was increased in mycowood to a higher extent than the reduction in the specific modulus of elasticity (E/ρ) and thus the sound velocity in the material. The sound velocity was decreasing with increasing incubation times and scattering of data with this regard was larger in the transversal than in the longitudinal direction. The sound radiation coefficient and the characteristic impedance were enhanced in mycowood and its color was more brownish and richer in tone.

ABSTRACT Growth in world demand for wood implies a search for new fast growing species with silvicultural potential, and in this scenario for native species such as Paricá . Thus, the objective of this study was determining the physical and mechanical wood properties of the Schizolobium amazonicum species (known as Paricá in Brazil). Trees were collected from commercial plantations located in the north of Brazil with ages of 5, 7, 9 and 11 years. Four logs from trees of each age in the longitudinal direction of the trees were obtained, and later a diametrical plank of each log was taken to manufacture the specimens which were used to evaluate some physical and mechanical properties of the wood. The basic density of Paricá was reduced in the basetop direction and no difference between the radial positions was observed, while the average basic density of this wood was characterized as low. The region close to the bark showed less longitudinal contraction and also greater homogeneity of this property along the trunk, while for tangential contraction the smallest variation was found in the region near the pith. Paricá wood contraction was characterized as low. Age influenced most of the mechanical properties, where logs from the base had the highest values of mechanical strength.

The physico-mechanical properties of the seeds of the small-seeded plant, camelina sativa, were determined. The groove disc-shaped seed metering designed to depend on the physical and mechanical properties of the seed. The seed volume weight 674.5 ± 6.8 g, the absolute seed weight was 1.24 ± 0.09 g. The newly invented groove disc-shaped seed metering was tested on the laboratory device where mounted SZP-3.6 with conveyor belt and while customized speed of the metering shaft and of the tooth height, with a total number of 15 measurements on each tooth. The test results were processed by STATISTICA. It suggested the highest quality of feed index by modified toothed seed disk to be m= 3.75gr at disk tooth height of h=2mm, and disk speed at n=13r/min.

Recycled newspaper (NP)/high density polyethylene (HDPE) laminated composite can reach the physical and mechanical criteria for most industrial applications, which shows the potential of using solid-state waste paper in engineering materials. Herein, the effects of splicing pattern and size on the physical and mechanical properties of the laminated composite were investigated with the ultimate purpose to fabricate a large-scaleale composite. The laminated composite with a stair-like splicing had better physical and mechanical properties than that with a vertical splicing. An efficient stress transfer could be guaranteed when the distance between the two adjacent junctions were greater than a critical proportion of 1/32 of the length at longitudinal direction. The tensile and flexural properties of the large-scaleale composite with a stair-like splicing, which was fabricated at the splicing ratio of 1/32, were 109 ± 4.2 MPa (MOR), 9836 ± 411 MPa (MOE), 119 ± 7.1 MPa (MOR) and 10002 MPa ± 347 (MOE).

An investigation on the properties of Tenun Pahang fabric performances using alternative yarns was conducted. The studies were made in order to evaluate whether the Tenun Pahang fabric could be produced economically and at the same time maintain the fabric quality. Traditional Tenun Pahang fabric uses silk for both warp and weft. For this project, two alternative yarns were used which were bamboo and modal, which were a little lower in cost compared to silk. These yarns were woven with two variations, one with the yarns as weft only while maintaining the silk warp and the other with both warp and weft using the alternative yarns. Four (4) physical testings and three (3) mechanical testings conducted on the fabric samples. The fabric samples were evaluated including weight, thickness, thread density, crease recovery angle, stiffness and drapability. The results show that modal/silk and bamboo silk fabrics are comparable in terms of stiffness and drapability, hence they have the potential to replace 100% silk Tenun Pahang.

Abstract A basic set of experiments for the determination of mechanical properties of sands is described. This includes the determination of basic physical and mechanical properties, as conventionally applied in soil mechanics, as well as some additional experiments, which provide further information on mechanical properties of granular soils. These additional experiments allow for determination of steady state and instability lines, stress-strain relations for isotropic loading and pure shearing, and simple cyclic shearing tests. Unconventional oedometric experiments are also presented. Necessary laboratory equipment is described, which includes a triaxial apparatus equipped with local strain gauges, an oedometer capable of measuring lateral stresses and a simple cyclic shearing apparatus. The above experiments provide additional information on soil’s properties, which is useful in studying the following phenomena: pre-failure deformations of sand including cyclic loading compaction, pore-pressure generation and liquefaction, both static and caused by cyclic loadings, the effect of sand initial anisotropy and various instabilities. An important feature of the experiments described is that they make it possible to determine the initial state of sand, defined as either contractive or dilative. Experimental results for the “Gdynia” model sand are shown.
