April 2014 | Vol. 18 • Issue 1 www.amusementtoday.com Adventuredome’s El Loco newest thriller at Circus Circus STORY: Dean Lamanna dlamanna@amusementtoday.com LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Over the last two decades, roller coasters in this desert destina- tion have launched, looped, corkscrewed and even coiled languorously atop a tower al- most 1,000 feet up. With at least two such high-profile rides and an en- tire theme park adjacent to one casino resort having also been dismantled in that time, The Adventuredome at Circus Circus Hotel & Casino — the indoor fun park that has sur- vived the local vicissitudes of family entertainment since its debut as Grand Slam Canyon in 1993 — has done something exceedingly right: providing rides and attractions in a cli- mate-controlled environment connected to a resort known for its kid friendliness for half a century.

It’s hard believe that time has passed that quickly. One of the things readers will notice is our new logo and newly renamed section fronts. After requests from our ride supplier advertisers, we have now merged all park Slade news with carnival/state fair news into one bigger section where their ads can now tap into both audi- ences. Next month we will be releasing details on our new electronic editions for your electronic devices. Although that service will be offered FREE, users will have to be a PAID subscriber to access the online monthly edition.

  • Real World Performance Tasks
    Cedar Point Real World Performance Tasks Real World Real Life, Real Data, Real-Time - These activities put students into real life scenarios where they use real-time, real data to solve proBlems. In the Relationship Status series, we use data from theme parks and update our data regularly. Note - some data has been rounded or simplified in order to adjust the math to the appropriate level. Engaging Relevant – Students today are familiar with and enjoy amusement park rides, making these activities very relevant to children’s everyday lives. To pique their interest further, try asking the Your Challenge question to the class first. Authentic Tasks - Through these activity sheets students learn how the amusement park industry works and are prompted to form opinions and ideas about how they would solve real life proBlems. A glossary is included to help them with the unfamiliar terms used. Student Choice - Each set of activity sheets is available in multiple versions where students will do the same activities using data for different amusement parks (e.g., Busch Gardens, Hershey Park, Six Flags, etc.) You or your students can pick the location that most interests them. Modular Principal Activity - The activity sheets always start with repeated practice of a core skill matched to a common core standard, as set out in the Teacher Guide. This principal activity (or Level 1 as it is labeled to students) can Be used in isolation. This should generally take around 10-15 minutes. Step Up Activity - For the Level 2 questions, students are required to integrate a different skill or set of skills with increasing complexity.

  • Design of Roller Coasters
    Aalto University School of Engineering Master’s Programme in Building Technology Design of Roller Coasters Master’s Thesis 24.7.2018 Antti Väisänen Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of master's thesis Author Antti Väisänen Title of thesis Design of Roller Coasters Master programme Building Technology Code ENG27 Thesis supervisor Vishal Singh Thesis advisor Anssi Tamminen Date 24/07/2018 Number of pages 75 Language English Abstract This thesis combines several years of work experience in amusement industry and a litera- ture review to present general guidelines and principles of what is included in the design and engineering of roller coasters and other guest functions attached to them. Roller coasters are iconic structures that provide safe thrills for riders. Safety is achieved using multiple safety mechanisms: for example, bogies have multiple wheels that hold trains on track, a block system prevents trains from colliding and riders are held in place with safety restraints. Regular maintenance checks are also performed to prevent accidents caused by failed parts. Roller coasters are designed using a heartline spline and calculating accelerations in all possible scenarios to prevent rollbacks and too high values of accelerations, which could cause damage to riders’ bodies. A reach envelope is applied to the spline to prevent riders from hitting nearby objects. The speed and curvature of the track combined create acceler- ations that need to be countered with adequate track and support structures. A track cross- section usually consists of rails, cross-ties and a spine, while support structures can vary depending on height and loads.
