A Study on the Longitudinal Vibration of Elevator

승강기의 종진동에 관한 연구

Analytical and experimental studies are performed to identify the longitudinal vibration characteristics of elevator system such as the natural frequencies, and the magnification factor at resonance. In the analytical study, a computer program is developed to analyze the vibration characteristics of elevator with varing rope length of elevtor, stiffenss of thimble rod spring, and excitation frequency. The shorter rope length and the stiffer thimble rod spring make the natural frequencies of elevator higer. The resonance at the first natural frequency spreads over the entire travelling range, whereas, that at the second one ranges relatively short, region. The first natural frequencies of the Gald-Star Twin Building and the Korea Trading Center Building obtained by the experiment are overall in good agreement with the analysis result..
