Mathematical and laboratory modeling of resonant impact on the spike for the purpose of grain selection

Mathematical and computer finite element model in the ACELAN package of resonant impact on a spike was developed and a full-scale experiment was carried out. Two installations are considered, one based on a cantilever, the free end of which acts on the spike, and the second is a semi-passive round bimorph. Excitation of vibrations is carried out using an actuator based on piezoceramic elements. In the first installation, low-frequency vibrations of the stem with a spike are excited and the resonance frequency is determined at which only an spike with grain performs intense vibrations. The second installation is designed to excite high-frequency vibrations at which resonant movements of the grains themselves arise. The purpose of both installations is to separate the grain from the spike using resonance phenomena.
