Development of Design Expert System for Tower Crane

초록

The paper is concerned with the application to develop the expert system for tower crane. This design and analysis expert system for tower crane integrates geometric, loads, material and property data subroutines. And this expert system can produce structural analysis model and data. These data can be used in ordinary structural analysis program such as SAP, ADINA, or NASTRAN. In this paper, this expert system produces format of the analysis model data which are used in MSC/NASTRAN. The main discussions included in the paper are as follows. - Introduction of the tower crane and structural analysis - Composition of the design expert system for tower crane - Structural analysis using the expert system - Evaluation of the results of the various models
