Abstract

The paper presents theoretical aspects of the calculus and simulation of transportation effect of vibratory hoppers. Two mathematical models are developed, based on distinct mechanical assumptions, which describe the motion of a singular small part, assimilated with a material particle, on the vibratory track. The small part executes a complex motion, composed by slides and jumps, and follows the conical-helix shape of the track.
