Justification of the design parameters for a flexible screw conveyor system for the disposal of damaged soil from blast craters

Abstract

This article presents the design of a device with a flexible screw conveyor that will improve the functional and operational characteristics of screw conveyors during the disposal of excavated contaminated soil. To select optimal design parameters for the sections of the screw working element, computer modeling was performed to assess the impact of force loads on corresponding deformations depending on operating conditions.
