Discrete element modelling of a chevron patterned conveyor belt and a transfer chute

The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is increasingly used to analyse the design of conveyor systems. In this study, the capability of, and accuracy with which DEM can predict the flow of a non-cohesive granular material through a transfer chute was investigated. The model included a Chevron patterned b...
