  • 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.

First Amusement Park & up was a continental breakfast just inside the front gate at around 5:30. The food Baja Amusements wasn't very settled when our hostess led us back to Dominator. September 12 It was a little surreal walking through the quiet park before 6 AM. Unlike the usual Go-Karts Plus morning ERTs, the rest of the park was NOT waking up. All was still, except the September 13 test runs of Dominator. (What a great sound it is to hear the B&M roar at King's Busch Gardens Europe Dominion.) The grass was not filled in yet and the queue area was not finished, but otherwise the landscaping around the ride was very nice. We climbed the stairs on October 11 the right side of the station (to be used for single riders or a "fast-lane" queue?) and Fall Thrillfest Kings Dominion arrived at the brightly lit loading dock.

The coaster was purchased in 1936 by the owner of Canobie Lake Park and installed here as the “Grey- hound.” The 60 foot tall first hill was destroyed by a hurricane in 1954. In the mid- 70’s, the coaster was renamed the “Yankee Cannonball”. The Yankee Cannonball is known as an “out and back” coaster because of its large “L” shaped layout. The three- car train travels over a track length of 1,840 feet at a maxi- mum speed of 35 miles per hour. The first and highest drop is 53 feet. With a ride time of 52 seconds from the top of the hill to the brakes and 1 min 52 seconds from station to station it has been rated as one of the top ten wooden coast- ers in the country!
