Abstract
An investigation into the dynamic forces between shaft
steelwork and conveyance is described. The investigation
involves both a computer model, which differs from other
models in incorporating some flexibility into the conveyance,
and field measurements. It is the first time
to our knowledge that measurements of conveyance wheel
loads and accelerations have been made in a wide range
of different shafts. The results of the computer model
and the measurements are analysed to give an assessment
of the magnitude of the forces and of those variables
which have a major influence on the forces.
