Description

In ropeway systems, to more increase the safety and reliability of transportation, it is extremely important to do operation control under wind in accuracy since the excessive swing of the carrier by wind may lead to a serious accident such as a collision with the columns. This paper presents (1) results of investigation of wind and carrier swing characteristics in two ropeway installations, (2) simulation results of carrier swing based on wind speed distribution and (3) an estimation method of limit wind speed of operation using carrier response simulation to random wind. Results of estimating limit wind speed of operation in two ropeway installations are reported as well
