The Strength Check for the Cockpit of "Ferris Wheel" Amusement Machine with ANSYS

Abstract:

Traditional mechanical calculations are more often used in the strength check of the amusement facility nowadays. However, there exit some disadvantages in this way, such as the long cycle cost, the heavy workload, and particularly the inability in case of more intricately forced parts. This paper illustrates the idea of using finite element analysis (ANSYS) software to check the strength of Ferris Wheel amusement machine rotating cockpit, analyzes the loads and stresses of the cockpit frame under extreme work conditions, and comes to a reasonable conclusion. And the strength check of intricately forced workpiece of amusement machines are explored as well.
