Finite Element Analysis and Stress Test of Quayside Container Crane

Abstract

In present society, port container transportation is a basic need for the costal country. The quayside container crane plays a vital role in port transportation field. Taking 80t quayside container crane as the subject, the three-dimensional model of crane steel structure with plates was established;the element analysis by means of Workbench and multi-measuring points stress test of quayside container crane steel structure was carried out. The simulationresults werecompared with test results to prove the correctness of the model. On the basis, the strength, rigidity and fatigue property of the crane was analyzed. Finally, some design and manufacture suggestions about craneswere given.
