The Pulley Element

The Pulley Element Abstract The pulley is used in a number of structures for the mechanical advantage it gives. This paper presents an approach for the calculation of a pulley-cable system using a special pulley element in the finite element method. The Lagrange Multiplier method and Penalty method are used to define the pulley element, as described in this paper. Both approaches are easy to implement in general FEM codes. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Transactions of the VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava, Civil Engineering Series. de Gruyter

Abstract

Abstract The pulley is used in a number of structures for the mechanical advantage it gives. This paper presents an approach for the calculation of a pulley-cable system using a special pulley element in the finite element method. The Lagrange Multiplier method and Penalty method are used to define the pulley element, as described in this paper. Both approaches are easy to implement in general FEM codes.
