  • Does It Have Fur Or Feathers? a Categorisation of Theme Park Attractions
    Does it have fur or feathers? A Categorisation of Theme Park Attractions Author: Frank Cornelissen Author ANR: U0396714 Supervisor: Pieter Cornelis 2nd Reader: Greg Richards Date: August 17th, 2010 Tilburg University Tilburg School of Social and Behavioural Sciences Department of Leisure Studies Preface & Acknowledgements One should think that the concept of ‘once bitten, twice shy’ would apply after finishing my bachelor thesis, yet a little over four months ago I once again found myself at the beginning of what then seemed an impossible task. The goal? To devise an empirically founded categorisation of theme park attractions. That task may seem simply at first, but when looking at attractions in the likes of, to name but a few, Tower of Terror, Hocus Pocus Hall, The Flying Dutchman, Lisebergtower, Hex or Dragon Khan, it will seen become apparent that each and every of these attractions is highly unique. As the seemingly endless imagination and the incredible skills that come into play in converting the most impossible of ideas into reality was part of what raised my interest in the theme park industry many years ago, that didn’t come as a surprise. It did, however, make things considerably more difficult. Luckily, I wasn’t on my own in taking on this challenge. First and foremost I would like to thank my supervisor Pieter Cornelis; I would not have been able to finish my thesis without his support, guidance, wisdom and ruthless criticism. I sincerely appreciate the advice Fetene Tekle, Marie-Anne Mittelhaeuser and especially Theo van der Weegen have given me regarding statistics in general and dimension reduction of dichotomous data in particular.

  • Team Building Activities in PORTAVENTURA PARK Live Your Own Adventure a Challenge Not Within Everybody’S Reach… Dare You?
    Team Building activities in PORTAVENTURA PARK Live your own adventure A challenge not within everybody’s reach… Dare you? The participants, working into teams, will live their own adventure and will have to pass as many trials and to answer as many questions as possible, as well as to overcome the surprises the Park has in store for them. In an atmosphere in which the only survivors will be the bravest, we propose the participants a teamwork activity in which they will have to manage themselves to be the most effective team when overcoming the challenge proposed. They will be the stars of an unforgettable journey surrounded by a five world’s unique atmosphere and the most exciting rides to enjoy. Dragon Khan, Hurakan Condor, Furius Baco… and Shambala, all of them will test the participant´s ability to let themselves be surrounded by an incomparable atmosphere. The participants will have to get as many points as possible, so they will have to face: Compulsory Points Teams must show up along with all its members in these points located in two pleasant rides and make the most of them. The pictures that the teams will get free of charge with the two coupons included inside the material, will witness it. Optional Points They are located in the Park rides. A well-made strategy will allow the teams to show up in as many points as possible (the more, the better), get on the rides, and so, resolve more enigmas and add more points for the team. The punctuation will depend on the solving of the enigma not on the number of team members that go on the ride in order to solve it.

  • Design & Construction of Roller Coaster Rides
    Design & Construction of Roller Coaster Rides Presented by Dr John Roberts of Babtie on Tuesday 14th May, 2002 Introduction For many hundreds of years, and across the developed world, mankind has enjoyed the pleasures of "fairs", initially on a travel- ling basis but for more than three hundred years in Europe and then the USA also at fixed fairgrounds. During the last century or so the introduction of mechanical passenger carrying devices at fairgrounds has tested to the limit both the skills and ingenuity of ride designers and builders, and also the capacity of humans (body and soul) to be thrilled to the point of near fear whilst actually being kept safe and sound. This paper traces the development of modern 'fast and furious' rides (particularly roller coasters), provides a basic description of how they operate by reference to both ride performance and human tolerance, and finally examines some very recent develop- ments in ride technology. Historical Review In a loose sense fast "gravity-powered" rides, which are now generically termed roller coasters, derive from ice slides constructed in Russia from the mid seventeenth century onwards. Elevated toboggan runs were constructed using a timber framework and an ice surface, and of course at the end of each run the toboggan had to be manhandled back up to the top of the slope again. In France, where a reliable period of freezing conditions was not available, similar constructions (inspired by the Russian ice slides) were built wholly from timber and the toboggans were fitted with wheels. The first example opened in 1804 and was called, pre- dictably, "La Montage Russe".
