Abstract:
The paper studies the ropeways as a special subgroup of land traffic system from the interdisciplinary aspect of the traffic sciences and geography. The ropeways have seen a propulsive technical and technological development over the last several decades. Therefore, the paper gives an overview of the types of ropeways with special emphasis on the technologically most advanced ropeways. Regarding the lack of studies on the ropeway issues in Croatia, the space distribution of ropeways in the Republic of Croatia has been analysed. The ropeways, as well as other transport modes, affect the space, and since ropeways are considered environmentally friendly traffic modes, their impact on the environment is analysed, both in the mountains and in the cities. Moreover, the economic influence of ropeways on the surrounding area is studied as well. KEY WORDS: ropeway, surface lift, aerial ropeway, chairlift, gondola, funicular

Abstract:
The article presents the basic technical requirements for carrying-hauling ropes for monocable aerial ropeways contained in the Directive 2000/9/EC of the New Approach of March 20th 2000 on cableway installations designed to carry passengers and in European Standards harmonized with it. These requirements apply to materials used for ropes, methods of manufacturing of wires and ropes, physical parameters, mechanical properties, testing methods and rope discarding criteria. The article summarizes the different types of loads in carrying-hauling ropes for monocable aerial ropeways and their impact on the operation of the cableways. It also touches the subject of the properties of carrying-hauling rope constructions with equal lay and compacted strands used in ropeways in Poland in the last two decades with particular emphasis on the structure of cores made of plastics. An analysis and assessment of the rope operation has been carried out in the last part of the article. This analysis considers factors such as the rope construction, the method of carriers gripping, lay direction of rope related to the direction of ropeway movement, rope elongation depending on the type of core and the associated rope shortening and rope fatigue life.

Abstract:
Ropeways and cable cars are a means of transportation in the air, which is best known for transporting goods and people across natural obstacles such as lakes, mountains and valleys. Ropeways are tightly associated with alpine areas, but in recent years, a new use has emerged for ropeways. Ropeways have evolved into a personal transport in urban environments and are used to bind together neighborhoods that are separated by urban obstacles such as highways, railways and ports. Urban ropeways have been highlighted both as a way to make efficient use of land space and as an ecologically sustainable transport. Urban cableways are common in South America but has also increased in popularity in Europe. Today we can find urban ropeways in cities such as London, Coblenz and Ankara, and now urban ropeways are also planned for in Sweden. The municipality of Sollentuna and the city of Gothenburg are investigating the possibility of integrating urban ropeway in the public transport system. In conjunction with a new transport system in the air in urban environments, many real estate legal issues that need to be addressed. The aim of the master thesis was to investigate the possible and appropriate approach to acquire rights to the air space in urban environments for ropeways. The study has been carried out as a legal study which has its basis in a groundwork study. In addition to this a supplementary interviews with experts in the field, case studies, studies of cadastral documents and case studies of the planned ropeways in Sweden were conducted. A comparison has been made with other types of ropeways which already exists in Sweden, and with other types of public transport in Sweden. This thesis has been able to show that the three-dimensional property is possible for some urban ropeways. The study shows that there is no special legislation is possible to apply to urban ropeways, but that the Expropriation Act and the Real Property Act are applicable. Easements and three-dimensional spaces are shown to be appropriate rights to the aerial space for ropeways, and there is the possibility of forcible land acquisition. Finally, the thesis gives suggestions on how land access for urban ropeways (and other transport systems in the air) should be done continuously.<br>Linbanor är ett transportmedel i luften som är mest känt för att kunna transportera gods och människor över hinder som sjöar, berg och dalar. Linbanor är tätt förknippat med alpina områden, men under de senaste åren har ett nytt användningsområde växt fram för linbanor. Linbanor har utvecklats till ett persontransportmedel i urbana miljöer och använts för att binda ihop stadsdelar som skiljs åt av urbana hinder såsom motorvägar, järnvägar och hamnar. Urbana linbanor har lyfts fram som ett sätt att effektivt utnyttja markutrymmet och som ett ekologiskt hållbart transportsystem. Urbana linbanor finns till stor del i Sydamerika, men har ökat i popularitet även i Europa. Idag finns urbana linbanor i städer såsom London, Koblenz och Ankara och nu planeras även urbana linbanor i Sverige. Sollentuna kommun och Göteborgs stad utreder möjligheten att integrera urbana linbanor i kollektivtrafiken. I samband med att ett nytt transportsystem kan komma att använda luftutrymmet i urbana miljöer uppstår många fastighetsrättsliga frågor som behöver besvaras. Det här arbetet syftar till att utreda möjliga och lämpliga tillvägagångssätt för att få nyttja luftutrymmet i urbana miljöer för linbanor. Examensarbetet har genomförts som en rättsdogmatisk studie med empiriskt rättshistoriska och rättssociologiska inslag som har sin grund i en förarbetesstudie. Utöver förarbetesstudien har kompletterande intervjuer med sakkunniga inom området, rättsfallsstudier, förrättningsaktsstudier samt fallstudier av planerade linbanor i Sverige genomförts. En jämförelse har gjorts med linbanor för andra ändamål samt andra kollektivtrafikslag i Sverige. Examensarbetet har kunnat visa på att tredimensionell fastighetsbildning är möjligt för vissa urbana linbanor. Studien visar på att det inte finns någon speciallagstiftning som är möjlig att tillämpa på urbana linbanor, men att expropriationslagen och fastighetsbildningslagen är tillämpliga. De rättighetsupplåtelser som är möjliga att tillskapa är servitut och tredimensionella utrymmen, och det finns möjlighet till tvångsvisa markförvärv. Slutligen ger examensarbetet förslag på hur markåtkomst för urbana linbanor (och andra transportsystem i luften) bör ske fortsättningsvis.

Abstract:
In Nepal, the harsh mountainous topography hinders a viable transport infrastructure, including roads, making trails and mule tracks the only available option for a majority of the population. This isolates communities and compels them to face an exhausting, time consuming and often dangerous journey to get their agricultural products to the nearest markets. This study investigates the potential of gravity goods ropeway as a viable means of transportation to serve these isolated communities. This research looks at Hiklung village to explore the significance of gravity good ropeways in linking farmers to markets, its socio-economic impact, and its effectiveness in improving food security and livelihoods of project beneficiaries. The findings of this study, based on participant observation and interactions with project beneficiaries, suggest that an alternative means of transportation like gravity goods ropeway can be a sustainable transport solution to these isolated communities and increase their participation in the local economy.

Abstract:
This work takes, as its overall trajectory, a leap from the heights of "factual" and "authentic" historical writing to the sea of fiction and myth. The first of the long poems, Ropewalk , is a sham biography of the French renaissance poet Louise Labé. To emphasize that much existing biography of Labé arises from interpretation of her lyrical poetry, the work incorporates lines of her sonnets, badly translated so that certain of the French words remain. Just as such translation does not seek to produce an apparition of the original, the poem does not seek to represent Louise Labé's life, but rather that of an unidentified lyrical 'I' belonging to both past and present. The second long poem, Ninth Month , is autobiographical, written from the interior of the final month of pregnancy. It acts as an introduction to the third long poem, Mountance of a Dream , also autobiographical. The spaces here are feminine and interior as well, but the writing self is undone, due to the birth of her daughter; her past is reassessed and in this reassessment changes.

Abstract:
Steel wire ropes are frequently subjected to dynamic reciprocal bending movement over sheaves or drums in cranes, elevators, mine hoists, and aerial ropeways. This kind of movement initiates fatigue damage on the ropes. It is a quite significant case to know bending cycles to failure of rope in service which is also known as bending over sheave fatigue lifetime. It helps to take precaution in the plant in advance and eliminate catastrophic accidents due to usage of rope when allowable bending cycles are exceeded. To determine bending fatigue lifetime of ropes, experimental studies are conducted. However, bending over sheave fatigue testing in laboratory environments require high initial preparation cost and longer time to finalize the experiments. Due to those reasons, this chapter focuses on a novel prediction perspective to the bending over sheave fatigue lifetime of steel wire ropes by means of artificial neural networks.

Abstract:
Towers, roller batteries, propelling cables and vehicles are the substructures of ropeway transportation systems. High-fidelity modeling of their dynamical interactions together with a reliable identification is a key step towards the prediction of the system response under various transit conditions as well as to investigate design optimization strategies. In this work, a nonlinear mechanical model for the dynamical description of cablecar ski lift systems is discussed. The investigation is focused on the modal features and the forced dynamic response caused by the vehicles transit across the so-called compression towers. The model is validated according to experimental data acquired via a custom-design sensor network. The Enhanced Frequency Domain Decomposition (EFDD) method is employed to identify the frequencies and damping ratios.

Abstract:
Modern technological advances in transport engineering and transport construction expand tools available to a transport planner: previously considered purely niche, “exotic” transit modes begin claiming to be full-fledged urban public transport varieties. One of those are aerial ropeways. The paper analyses international experience of this technology as a mass transit component used in urban environments. We suggest factors can influence decision making in favour of aerial cableways as a form of public transport. Within the proposed methodology, we identify pairs of adjacent districts where cableways could be sufficient as an element of an intermodal transit system.

Abstract:
Abstract Ropeways such as gondola lifts have attracted increasing interest as a means of transportation in cities. However, swing of ropeway carriers is easily caused by wind, and usually a ropeway cannot operate if the wind velocity exceeds about 15m/s. The study of how to reduce the wind-induced swing of ropeway carriers has attracted many researchers. It had been said that it was impossible to reduce the vibration of pendulum type structures such as ropeway carriers by a dynamic absorber. But in 1993, Matsuhisa showed that the swing of carrier can be reduced by a dynamic absorber if it is located far above or below from the center of oscillation. Based on this finding, a dynamic absorber composed of a moving mass on an arc-shaped track was designed for practical use, and it was installed in chairlift-type carriers and gondola type carriers in snow skiing sites in Japan in 1995 for the first time in the world. It has been shown that a dynamic absorber with the weight of one tenth of the carrier can reduce the swing to half. The liquid dynamic absorber was also investigated. It has the same damping effect as the conventional solid absorber. It is easy to adjust the natural frequency and the damping ratio, and the structure is simple. Therefore, it will be applied for not only ropeway carriers but also ships and rope suspended bridge and others.
