The concept of creating and applying the combined cable car system in the Arctic region

Abstract

The article considers the relevance of the development of new modes of transport for the formation of a safe and efficient transport system, the operation of which is possible in harsh Arctic conditions. One of the directions of development is the concept being developed for the creation and application of a combined system of cable cars in the Arctic region. The results of the research conducted in the direction of creating rope logistics transport systems in the interests of operational supply in off-port conditions are considered, the advantages and disadvantages of the stationary, prefabricated and mobile cable cars under consideration are given. A patented method of cargo delivery to the unequipped coast using a cable car is proposed. This method is developed on the basis of a pre-erected cargo and passenger cable car "Gryphon" and allows for the prompt delivery of goods to an unequipped coast, in which a carrier-traction rope (cable) is stretched between the standard lifting device of the vessel and the shore support in such a way that the cargo does not touch the surface of the water and is equipped with a radio-controlled carriage, Having the ability to lift (lower) cargo at any point along the route, the areas of application and the main directions for improving existing cable cars have been identified in order to form an effective combined system for use in the interests of the logistics system of enterprises, organizations and their divisions deployed in the Arctic region.
