Abstract

The paper discusses various failure modes associated to the links of bucket chains used in gold and tin mining in marine and alluvial environments. Failure control and the simulation of static and dynamic stresses developed in the operation of bucket ladder dredges using the Finite Element Method are also examined in detail.
