According to the Japanese corporation Obayashi, a space elevator will be
built by 2050. The elevator will go 96,000 kilometers (60,000 miles) into
space, carrying passengers and cargo to a brand-new space station. It will
serve as a port for the transportation of personnel to Mars and other
planets.
Deploying the cable and building the facilities make up the construction
procedure. To define the construction methods and to identify the features
of the cable, counter-weight, facilities, and climbers, an analysis of the
cable dynamics is required.
The tension, displacement, and lengthening of the cable caused by climbing
climbers, counter-weight and cable masses, wind, and fixed loads of
facilities are among the parameters for the cable dynamics. We created the
system and established the building procedure using a computer simulation of
the equations of motion. ~Obayashi
