I would be very grateful if anyone could inform me about available bibliography for design of scraper reclaimers, specially at circular stockyards.

I am particularly interested on information about basic design parameters, such as:

- Blade dimensioning (length, width, etc.)

- Speed calculation (scraping, travel/slew, hoist...)

- Determination of friction factors (material-material, material-blades, etc.)

Thank you in advance ■
