Analysing impact forces and overcoming issues in high-capacity belt support applications
Limitations to the parameters at which belt support failure occurs have been found experimentally in the past. Kinder Australia, however, aims to predict a specification limit for its belt support systems to ensure that it will survive and push the boundaries in terms of belt speed and capacity.

Hopper wall loads caused by eccentric discharge
Bin Chen, engineering manager of TUNRA Bulk Solids, discusses the use of computational simulation to understand how the wall loads are affected by eccentric discharge. This paper was originally presented at the CHoPS Conference, and co-authors include Alan Roberts, Brendan Beh, Tim Donohue and Jie Guo.
