Integrated Roller Coaster Design Environment: Dynamic and Structural Vehicle Analysis
Keyword(s):
In this paper a tool for the multibody simulation and structural analysis of roller coaster (RC) is illustrated. It was developed in order to support the designer and manufacturer of rides during the design stage. The goodness of the modelling and simulation procedure was validated in terms of dynamic behaviour by experimental/numerical comparisons by conducting an experimental tests campaign on the existing Roller Coaster. Another aim was to verify and illustrate the possibility to recover the stress state of RC axles not from a rigid multibody model and by an indirect approach but, directly, by a rigid/flexible model by their modal modelling.
