Skewness Decision Tree Support Vector Machine (SDTSVM) algorithm is widely known as a supervised learning model for multi-class classification problems. However, the classification accuracy of the SDTSVM algorithm depends on the perfect selection of...
In order to reduce the noise of a defect electromagnetic signal of the steel cord conveyor belt used in coal mines, a new signal noise reduction method by combined use of the improved threshold wavelet and Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is propos...
Results of tests into the energy-efficiency of belt conveyor transportation systems indicate that the energy consumption of their drive mechanisms can be limited by lowering the main resistances in the conveyor. The main component of these resistance...
This paper presents the identification and classification of steel cord failures in the conveyor belt core based on an analysis of a two-dimensional image of magnetic field changes recorded using the Diagbelt system around scanned failures in the tes...
This study analyses how the orientation of the measurement head in a magnetic diagnostic system affects the parameters of magnetic signals recorded during steel-cord conveyor belt inspection. The experiments were conducted on a laboratory test stand...
Breaks in the so-called “continuous” (unspliced) belt sections, and not in the spliced areas, are infrequent but do happen in practice. This article presents some aspects, which may account for such breaks in conveyor belts. It indicates the so-calle...
Because of their superior performance, flexible strain sensors are used in a wide range of applications, including medicine and health, human–computer interaction, and precision manufacturing. Flexible strain sensors outperform conventional sil...
In coal mine production processes, conveyor belts are essential components. They play a crucial role in minimizing the risk of belt failure, enabling unmanned operations in hazardous environments, digitally monitoring production metrics, and facilita...
Damage detection in complex mechanical structures is important for cost-effective and safe operation. Conveyor belts with steel cords are used for bulk material transport in mining companies. Due to harsh environmental conditions, both covers and cor...
The transverse vibration frequency of conveyor belts is an important parameter describing the dynamic characteristics of a belt conveyor. This parameter is most often identified from theoretical relationships, which are derived on the basis of an ass...
This article demonstrates that machine fires caused by a belt transmission are a fundamental and current research problem. The aim of this work is to identify the hazards during thermal decomposition and combustion of a transmission with a toothed be...
This study presents the results of an investigation into the potential use of the DiagBelt+ magnetic diagnostic system for assessing the quality of conveyor belt splices. Splices in conveyor belts are susceptible to damage and irregularities resultin...
