New developments in mechanical equipment at the Faculty of Mining and Electrical Engineering

Abstract

The main results of research work performed at the departments of the mechanical cycle of the Faculty of Mining and Electromechanics in 2000 are presented. Research and design works for making effective and environmentally safe machines and complexes for mining and processing industries are made at the Faculty of Mining and Electromechanics under the guidance of leading experts. The analysis of design and operating characteristics of manufactured dump trucks is given and modern principles of formation of design and operating requirements to them are formulated. A methodology and mathematical model for determining the optimal characteristics of the complexes have been developed. Studies on the development of hydraulic transport equipment for underwater development of offshore mineral deposits have been carried out. New technological schemes of slurry hydrotransportation in flexible sectional pipelines of variable curvature united by spherical joints are proposed. Research work on the development of the theory of working processes and improvement of electromechanical mining equipment complexes for energy-saving technologies was carried out.
