Abstract

Carrying structures of heavy metallurgical equipments are during their operation often exposed to extreme loading. The short-term overloading of the structure results to high stresses in locations of their concentrations. By repeating of these phenomena is decreased the life-time of the structure and eventually this leads to local failures in their carrying elements. In the paper are on examples described advantages of using numerical and experimental methods of mechanical system modelling that is exploited for identification of overloading in carrying elements of metallurgical equipments or for detection of damage causes.

Keywords
