MEASURING SYSTEM FOR CHARACTERISATION OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN CROSSWIND AND GONDOLA INCLINATION OF ROPEWAYS

Klaus Hoffmann, Robert Liehl
  • Abstract:
    The crosswind stability of an operating ropeway is an essential factor for its system security in adverse weather conditions. This paper introduces a mobile measuring system for characterisation of the crosswind stability of ropeways, firstly describing the measuring concept and the measuring sensors, then presenting some data records of the cross inclination of the gondola and the corresponding wind speed.
