Dynamic characteristics analysis of an escalator

摘要

Predicting the dynamic characteristics of an escalator by means 9f computational dynamic analysis is a meaningful subject, and has not been throughly investigated before. The general purpose kinematic and dynamic analysis program, DADS which hasbeen shown to be effective in the dynamic analysis of multi-body systems, is utilized to analyze the interaction of the escalator and can be applied to more than 900 independent degree-of-freedom. Thousands of friction contact of rollers and the handrail. The model presented is experiementally verified to sustantiate its accuracy and efficacy..
