Abstract

A virtual prototype of high-rise building window cleaning gondola based on multibody system dynamics software MSC.ADAMS is presented. The rigid bodies are modeled by CAD software and flexible bodies are modeled by discrete beam method. The whole machine's natural characteristics are analyzed and changed to frequency field. According to the results, the dangerous frequencies are avoided and the design can be optimized and the performance can be improved.
