Finite element analysis of Bridge Crane Metal Structure Based on ABAQUS

Abstract

Taking the QD-type (50/10t-31.5) bridge crane as the research object and the finite element method as theoretical basis, the metal structure using ABAQUS software is analyzed. Firstly, the three-dimensional model of the metal structure is established according to the design parameters. Second, the bridge crane under three typical operation conditions is analyzed and the stress and displacement analysis results are presented. And, the strength and stiffness of the crane are verified based on the analysis results. Moreover, the maximum stress and displacement under dangerous conditions of the crane are calculated by theoretical calculation. By comparing the results of the theoretical method and the finite element method. The research can favor to increase the design efficiency.
