Boom Section's Bionic Design Based on Bamboo

Article Preview

Abstract:

From the similar analysis theory, choose the bamboo as the bionic object for boom section design; based on the microscopic characteristics of the bionic object, the author design the boom section with the idea of multistory steel-plates. Based on ABAQUS Standard solver for finite element analysis, gets the boom’s properties on strength and stiffness. compared with the traditional cross-section, bionic boom is superior on strength. The bionic cross-sectional design idea breaks the traditional ways of crane boom design, optimization, and provides a new reference direction.
