Mathematical models of the stress-strain state of the conveyor belt
The article provides a critical review of work on the stress-strain state of the conveyor belt. Various approaches to the determination of the stress-strain state of a conveyor belt of conveyors of various designs are considered. It is shown that the well-known mathematical models of the stress-strain state of a conveyor belt are too complex for practical application and mainly relate to traditional designs of conveyors. The conclusion about the need for further research in this direction.
