Simulation-expertise analysis of ropes used in the horizontal belaying system
This article deals with a dynamic simulation of the movement and fall of persons working at a height, using the rope belaying system. The input data, which are necessary for a created simulation model, were obtained from experimental measurements realised from the concrete belaying system. The simulation analyses were performed for three different values of the rope pre-load level. Consequently, the outputs from the simulations presented in this article were applied in a real design proposal of the rope anchoring arrangement for a horizontal belaying system.Web of Science103675
Limit states of steel supporting structure for bridge cranes
This paper describes a question of evaluation necessity of bridge cranes using the method of limit deformation state and oscillation damping. The solution was performed by means of theoretical analysis and an experimental verification at the selected bridge crane. The final result sounds that in the case of a correct strength computing of given bridge crane, it is not necessary to also check deformation and damping of oscillation as well.Web of Science10815814
ANALYSIS AND OPTIMISATION OF DYNAMIC STABILITY OF MOBILE WORKING MACHINES
This paper describes an investigation of the dynamic stability, which is
specified for the mobile working machines. There are presented the basic theoretical
principles of the stability theory together with an introduction of two illustrative examples of
the dynamic stability analysis
RELIABILITY ANALYSIS OF CRANE LIFTING MECHANISM
This paper focuses on a reliability analysis of various structural
variants of a crane lifting mechanism. The reliability of such a mechanism is a basic requisite for the safe operation of the crane as a whole. The article analyses and jointly evaluates structural solutions for the lifting mechanism in a bridge crane, in order to emphasize the technical aspects of system reliability in this context
Planning of Optimal Capacity for the Middle-Sized Storage Using a Mathematical Model
The article deals with the issue of midsize businesses, their position within the association, and specifically determining the size and range of stocks in their ware-houses. A mathematical model is used and several examples explain the issue of calculating warehouse items
SIMULATION ANALYSIS OF ROPE BELAYING SYSTEM
This article describes a technical proposal of anchoring determined for a horizontal belaying system, which was developed to increase the safety of crane operators and maintenance staff in their movements and work at heights. This belaying system can be installed either on the common, already existing footbridge of the overhead travelling crane or on the crane track. Loading of the steel wire rope was investigated by the simulation figurines during various assumed loading regimes. The figurines were attached to the rope belaying system by means of the standard personal protective equipment and the calculation process was realised using the non-linear dynamic FEM analysis
INCREASING DURABILITY IN STEEL WIRE ROPE INSTALLED IN SPECIAL TRANSPORT EQUIPMENT
In this paper, special transport-handling equipment is presented for the purpose of pushing wagons in a trans-shipment facility. During operations, the rotary tilter device, which is an integrated part of the trans-shipment process, leads to excessive wear of the steel wire rope used for pushing wagons by means of a pusher system. Therefore, the main task was to propose a suitable design modification of the given pusher system in order to eliminate excessive wear of the rope and, in turn, to prolong operational durability for this steel wire rope, as well as for the whole technical system
