Finite Element Analysis of ROPS with Energy-Absorbing Structure for Engineering Vehicles

Abstract:

This article addresses the design of ROPS model with energy absorbing structure based on dimensions of cross-section, mechanic properties and deformation pattern of ROPS. Afterwards, optimized buffer and energy-absorbing elements are installed on hexastyle ROPS of certain loader where roll-over accident can be simulated. Results indicate such structure can offer significantly improved protection. Installation of buffer and energy absorbing elements will not only absorb vast amount of motion during roll-over, but also will reduce deformation to ROPS. This has well coordinated the conflict between required rigidity and energy absorbing.
