Performance analysis of grader ROPS structure based on nonlinear finite element
In order to study the structural performance of a new type of Roll-over Protective Structure(ROPS)for graders,according to the requirements of national safety standards,the ROPS finite element analysis model was established through HyperMesh and ABAQUS software,then the nonlinear finite element analysis was completed,and the stress and deformation of ROPS under lateral,vertical,longitudinal loading and lateral energy absorption conditions were obtained.The results showed that it was verified that the design of the grader ROPS could meet the requirements of the national standard,which provides a basis for the research of grader ROPS.
