Flexible flat belts are used on bucket elevators and belt conveyors to carry loose, bulk product. The belt is stretched tight from head drum to tail drum and the friction generated on the turning head drum is used to drive the belt and carry the product. The belt must run true on the end pulleys (drums) and stay within the sides of the equipment structure. If the belt runs off the drums, buckets will be destroyed and belt edges frayed. In the worst cases the belt runs off the pulleys resulting in a breakdown repair. Proper and long-lived tracking of belts is critical for trouble-free operation.

6161103 8.4 frictional forces on screwsetcenterrbru
Screws are commonly used as fasteners to transmit power or motion between machine parts. A screw can be thought of as an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. When a screw is rotated, the nut moves along the inclined plane of the screw thread. The distance the nut moves in one revolution is called the lead of the screw. Large axial loads on a screw generate significant frictional forces on the threads. The moment required to turn a screw under an axial load depends on the frictional forces and can be calculated using force and moment equilibrium equations. A self-locking screw will remain locked in place through frictional forces alone when the applied moment is removed.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

badminton and racquet ball and requires that only the
small weight be used in tensioning. To remove the large
weight, unfasten the Allen bolt shown at top. REMOVE FOR LOW TENSIONS
GRIPPING THE STRING
To tension the string, wrap it around the string gripper and WRAP
then insert it between the jaws. The jaws of the gripper AND INSERT
are diamond coated and grip the string securely. The sur-
face of the jaws does not require maintenance. The out-
side of the drum should be cleaned periodically with rub-
bing alcohol. At the same time you, should clean the pinch-
ing surfaces of the flying clamps. No other maintenance is
required on your Silent Partner Swing.
TENSIONING THE STRING ARM
Drop the weight while initially holding the loose end of the BEYOND
string (see previous picture). You should not pull tightly on HORIZONTAL
the string or the arm may not reach the horizontal position.
Note that the clutch will allow you to pull the weight up, but
not down, so you should begin by aiming for a position that
is lower than the horizontal (as shown in the picture on the
right).
To obtain accurate tension, the arm should rest in a hori-
LIFT AND
zontal position (+/- 2 degree deviation is acceptable). If the
LET REST
arm comes to rest above the horizontal, you will have to
release the string and grip it again allowing for a bit more
slack. If the arm comes to rest in a horizontal position, no
adjustment is necessary. If the arm goes beyond the hori-
zontal, use the clutch by gripping the outer rim of the grip-
per as shown in the picture on the right. Keep the gripper HOLDING
stationary as you raise the arm above the horizontal with GRIPPER
your other hand. Release the gripper and the arm and ON LIFT
check if the arm comes to rest in the horizontal position as
shown in the lower picture. If the arm is still below the hori-
zontal, hold the gripper and raise the arm again. With a bit
of practice you will get the arm in a horizontal position with GOOD
a single adjustment, or even from the very first drop. Two FINAL
POSITION
words of caution though: Always provide enough slack in
the string so that the arm will go below the horizontal
rather than stop above it. Do not press down on the arm
to get it to the horizontal position (this will create excessive
and inaccurate tension).

WEAVING TECHNIQUES
There are two common techniques for weaving the
cross strings over and under the mains. Both tech-
niques require that one hand be placed over the
string bed and the other hand under it.
1) Secure the string between the index finger of
each hand and push it away from you as you snake
it over and under successive main strings.
2) Secure the string with two fingers placed about
six inches from the end of the string and pull the
resulting loop towards you as you snake it over and
under successive main strings.
TYING KNOTS
Knots normally involve an anchor string (a string
that is already installed and tensioned) and a tying
string (a loose string end that is threaded through
the same hole as the anchor string and wrapped
around the anchor string in a self-locking pattern).
The most common knot in racquet stringing is known as the
DOUBLE HALF-HITCH. To tie a half-hitch knot remember the
“OUT” rule: take the tying string Over the anchor string, guide it
Under and around the anchor string, and finally pull it Through
the loop that the tying string has formed. To lock this knot in
place you need only pull on the end of the tying string. A single
half-hitch would normally be secure but it is standard practice to
double up on the half-hitch for added security. The second half-
hitch is tied exactly the same way using the OUT rule.
Two-piece stringing requires what is known as a STARTING
KNOT to provide an initial anchor for the crosses. One important
property of the starting knot is its bulk, which is useful when
using thin strings. Note that while the starting knot is initially
loose, the pull of the first cross as it is being tensioned tightens
the knot very securely.
When tying knots it is helpful to lock the racquet in place using
the screw-in brake on the cross bar. For tight knots, it is also
desirable to use needle nose pliers to pull on the string. For
safety, pull down (away from your face). Also for safety it is
advisable to wear protective eye glasses while stringing.
WANT TO STRING FASTER?
1. Perfect your weaving and knot tying techniques! Advanced
stingers often weave “one ahead” (two strings are weaved
before the trailing string is tensioned). This technique exploits
the “lifting” effect the tensioned “cross” has over the “mains”.
2. Keep track of the string ends so that you don’t have to keep
searching for them. You can keep them under your belt or wrist
band or in the next hole they will be threaded through.
3. Keep string ends cut at a sharp angle. This will allow them
to act as awls when pushed through tight grommet holes.
5. GETTING READY TO STRING 5
RACQUET TERMINOLOGY
RACQUET INSPECTION
Examine the frame for hairline cracks and for warpage. A frame that suffers from structural weaknesses
may not be worth stringing. Next look for repairable damage. A common wear point is at the head of
the racquet where the protective bumperguard may be damaged from contact with the court. Grommets
can also wear on the inside of the frame where strings are tied. Although it is normal for grommets to
flare from the compression caused by knots at tie off points, grommets that allow the string to touch the
racquet frame should be replaced. If replacement is indicated, you may want to consult with a profes-
sional for advice on how to proceed and for obtaining the exact replacement part for your racquet. If
you obtain the replacement grommet and want to install it yourself, be mindful of the following points:
(1) the replacement grommet strip must be made specifically for your racquet, (2) Start at one end by
inserting the first grommet into the appropriate hole in the racquet and then proceed to adjacent grom-
mets in succession. You will soon find it necessary to help each grommet pass through the inner hole in
the racquet frame by guiding it with the point of an awl. (3) Used grommet strips cannot be reinstalled.
CUTTING OLD STRINGS
Because the breakage of a string causes substantial
imbalance in the distribution of tension in the frame, it
is advisable for the owner of the racquet to cut
through the entire string bed as soon as possible after
a string breaks. To avoid creating further stress as
one cuts into the string bed, it is best to begin at the
center of the racquet by snipping a main and a cross
string together where they intersect. One should then
proceed outward in a diagonal toward the rim by snip-
ping intersecting strings above and below the center
point in alternation. If, after reaching the rim, a few
strings still hold tension, they can be cut singly.
Remove the strings by pulling them out of the frame
from the outside. Lay the pieces in a neat bundle to
facilitate clean-up.

PATTERNS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM
Each racquet has a stringing pattern that is specified by the racquet manufacturer. The table below
shows the pattern for a Wilson Hammer 5.8 95 (mid size), the racquet we will use in this stringing tutori-
al. Once you understand the basic steps involved in stringing this racquet, you will be able to interpret
the pattern for any racquet. To assist you, we have posted the patterns for a large number of racquets
on the internet. Here is where you will find them:

To interpret stringing patterns correctly it is important to know what each part of the racquet is called.
* The tip of the racquet is known as the HEAD and is referred to as "H" in stringing patterns.
* The bottom of the racquet head is known as the THROAT and is referred to as "T" in patterns.
* The strings that run from the throat to the head of the racquet are known as the MAINS and are
referred to as "M" in stringing patterns.
* The strings that run from side to side in the racquet head are known as the CROSSES and are
referred to as "X" in stringing patterns..
* The holes in the racquet head are referred to by number, counting in either direction from the center at
the head (e.g. 7H) or at the throat (e.g. 7T).
Deciding whether to go with 1-piece or 2-piece stringing
Notice that the stringing pattern for the Hammer 5.8 contains information for one-piece stringing and
two-piece stringing. One-piece stringing is the most common, but it is not always the best. A descrip-
tion of the two methods of stringing follow along with a few of their advantages and disadvantages.
When all is said and done, both methods yield excellent results. To avoid unwanted stresses, some rac-
quet manufacturers occasionally specify only one method for stringing some of their frames.
One piece stringing is done with a single piece of string that is tied in two places only. The string is
divided into what is known as a "short side" and a "long side". The short side is used to string the
mains on one side of the racquet head, ending in one tie off, while the long side is used to string the
mains on the other side as well as all of the crosses ending with the other tie off.
+ Two knots take less time than four (but don't worry, tying knots is really easy).
+ String usually comes in one coil and can be used with less cutting this way.
- The same type of string needs to be used for the mains and the crosses.
- The long side of the string is a bit cumbersome when lacing the mains.
Two-piece stringing utilizes one piece of string for the mains and another for the crosses. The piece
used for the mains is divided into two equal parts around the center point of the racquet and is laced
symmetrically on both sides of the center point, ending in a tie off at each end. The crosses are started
at one end with a "starting knot", and are weaved to the other end where they are tied off.
+ Allows the use of different strings for the mains and crosses.
+ Neither piece of string is very long, making it easier to lace the mains.
- Unless the string is packaged as a hybrid, a bit more measuring is necessary.
- Four knots are more intimidating for beginners than two (despite our reassurances).
8. 8 LACING THE MAINS

Stringing normally begins with the START
mains at the center of the racquet and (LOOP)
proceeds outward to the sides of the
frame. Measure enough string for the SHORT SIDE = 8.5FT

pattern (a measuring tape is provided
on the machine) and form a loop at
the head or throat according to the
pattern for the racquet you are string- LONG SIDE = 25.5FT

on each side of the loop is of equal
length.

to close the loop and apply a clamp

placed about three inches from the PLACE CLAMP ON BOTH STRINGS
loop to provide sufficient space for the
placement of another clamp. Note
that flying clamps should always ride
on two strings and that they should be
adjusted to pinch the two strings
securely but not excessively. If you
see clamp marks on the strings,
reduce the tightness of the clamp by
turning the adjusting screw counter-
clockwise with the allen key supplied
with the clamp.

needs (between 50 and 60 lbs for this
frame) and drop the arm to tension

to allow the arm to rest horizontally,
then install the second flying clamp as
shown in the picture. Raise the arm
after clamping the string. Note that
the brake is not used during tension-
ing
HELPFUL HINT FOR UNCOILING STRING
Stringing a racquet is a little like going fishing -- the hardest part is often deal-
ing with tangles. To avoid spending a long and frustrating time untangling
string (not uncommon with beginners) snip the plastic tie with diagonal cutters
while holding the roll of string tightly with one hand (be careful not to snip a
string in the process or you could cut your roll in half!). Continue to hold the
roll with one hand and use the other hand to unwrap the string one coil at a
time, allowing the loose end to gather on the floor. It will help you to know
that a 40 foot roll contains about 32 coils. Under most circumstances, howev-
er, you will need to measure the string using the measuring rule on the string-
ing machine.

degrees to tension the string on the
head side. Note that the flying clamp
that is not necessary to hold tension
on the strings (given that the tension-
er is temporarily lending a hand)
needs to be moved to the new posi-
tion to clamp the strings at the head,
close to the string gripper (see picture
5, for example). Take care never to
release tension in the tensioned string
bed. You’ll have to start from scratch!
5 KEEP LACING, TENSIONING AND CLAMPING
ON ALTERNATE SIDES OF THE CENTER
From this point on things get repeti-
tive for a while. What is important is
to lace and tension one string at a
time in alternation on each side of the
center point. This is to maintain even
tension in the frame.

SKIP 7H AND 7T
You don’t want to miss skipping holes
that will be used for crosses (holes 7
and 9 at the head and throat in this
frame). Just between you and us, a
dead give away of inexperienced
stringers is that they count their
strings at practically every tensioning
operation, so try to do it discretely.

a tensioned string in this hole (known
as the anchor) and that the hole is
larger than most other holes to
accommodate two strings.
Recognizing tie off holes is a valuable
skill when a racquet pattern is not
available. Detailed instructions on
this type of tie off (using a double
half-hitch knot) are provided in this
manual on page 4.

This tutorial illustrates 1-piece and 2- FOR TWO-PIECE
piece stringing. The last step in STRINGING,
installing the mains in 2-piece string- OTHER MAIN IS
ing is to tie off the second main. For ALSO TIED AT 6T
1-piece stringing this main is not tied
off since the long string is used to
weave the crosses.
HELPFUL HINT FOR TYING KNOTS
Because tension is invariably lost when a knot is tied, some operators like to pull the
last string at 3 lbs higher than the reference tension. To hold this tension while tying
the knot, some operators push an an awl in the grommet hole where the last string is
tensioned prior to tie off. While this procedure is effective in preventing movement of
the string when tying the knot, it should be used with great care because it can result
in an enlarged grommet hole or cause damage to the grommet and the string. This
type of damage usually causes premature failure of the string. You should always
inspect grommets to insure that they provide a smooth bed for the string.

the string is threaded through the hole
designated by the pattern for starting
the crosses (remember hole 7T that

The string is weaved over and under
the mains (see instructions on weav-
ing on page 4) and threaded through
the same-number hole at the other
end. Stringing proceeds in succes-
sive open holes until tie off (at 5H
here). To avoid friction burns during
this pulling operation it is important to
“fan” (push the string up along the
mains with your fingers) repeatedly TO AVOID FRICTION BURNS, SPREAD CROSS AS YOU PULL
while pulling.
11 IN TWO-PIECE STRINGING
OTHER MAIN IS TIED AT 6T
Our example will continue with 2-

the same operations as 1-piece
stringing. The pattern specifies that
the crosses start at the head (note
that the starting knot is at 5H; see
page 4 for instructions on tying a
starting knot). Because two piece
stringing often involves ‘hybrids’ (dif-
ferent strings) of different gauges, it is
important to check and adjust the
pinch of the flying clamps at this time.

ing on page 4). Again, take note of
the importance of spreading or “fan-

clamp from pulling back with the first

are only clamping one cross we rec-

On occasion you will encounter heavy
string traffic around holes you need to
put a cross through. Use the tip of an
awl to open a passage. Also, when
traffic gets heavy do not allow strings
to cross over each other on the out-
side of the frame (lay them parallel).

Just when this was getting to be fun,
we are done! The pattern tells us that
the last cross is at 7T and the tie off
at 11T. The crosses are often
crooked at the end of a string job.
Straighten them and then look careful-
ly at the string plane (placing an eye
near the racquet shaft at the level of
the plane, helps). This is not the time
to discover a missed weave!!!
