Dynamic Response of Tower Cranes Under Seismic Actions. Case Study
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration - Year 2011, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
The dynamic model of tower cranes has been analysed and presented by authors in two other conferences as well as his mathematical model of the differential equations of movement, considering the tower cranes anchored on the buildings. However, this paper presents the analytical solution for sinusoidal seismic actions in the case of the tower cranes without anchors. The solution is obtained for the MTO-180 tower crane. The diagrams of the absolute and relative displacements, velocities and accelerations are obtained and represented graphically by means of MATHCAD programme.
