Abstract: For cable supporting roller batteries of cable transport systems a dynamic modle is developed which allows the calculation of eigenfrequencies and modes under the restoring action of a pretensioned cable and the response investigation during the successive passage of a clamp (with supported vehicles) over the rollers. The analytical method is developed. The calculated eigenmodes and frequencies are basically confirmed by modal testing data.
Keywords: cable transport system, mechanism dynamics, vibration eigen-values.
