Abstract

A theoretical study of strains and stresses in cycling of conveyor belts strengthened by two layers of high modulus cord (Kevlar®) was performed. Experimental belts were then built with cords of varying twist and their behavior in fatigue investigated. The significance of cord compression was especially clarified, but the results yield much further information on engineering these fiber composite products.
