Contact Analysis of Truss Bridge Inspection Vehicle’s Oriented Rollers

Abstract:

Since that rollers of a certain type of bridge inspect vehicle were worn seriously in the process of using, a multi-contact dynamic model was set up utilizing ADAMS and SolidWorks. The Poison Model was used to describe the contact relationship between rollers and vertical truss. After dynamic analysis and calculation of contact forces by ADAMS, time-contact force curves were drawn. The curves proved that the results were consistent with the actual situation, so that the simulation process was verified.
