Finite Element Analysis on Telescopic Suspension Arm of Dirt-Removing Crane Based on ANSYS

Abstract:

A finite-element mechanical model is established aiming at the features of telescopic suspension arm of dirt-removing crane in practice, such as that there exist many compound modes, the range of variation in lifting weight is big, etc. The strength, stiffness and stability of suspension arm is calculated and optimized based on ANSYS (software). The result of conventional design, which is checked and revised, tallies with the measured value relatively and may provide valuable reference for the design of suspension arm, which is to some extent significant to prolonging the fatigue life of cranes.
