On the transversal vibrations of a conveyor belt: Applicability of simplified models

摘要

In this paper, some aspects in the analysis of transversal oscillations of conveyor belts will be discussed. In particular the use of finite or infinite mode-representations to describe the oscillations will be discussed, and the applicability of the underlying partial differential equations will be taken into account.
