FEA-Classical Tipper

This document describes an FEA analysis and classical calculation of reaction forces on a hook loader. It includes: 1) Details of the steel tube modelled and FE representation. 2) Description of the classical methodology for calculating reaction forces. 3) Tables of reaction forces calculated through both classical and FEA free body force methods. 4) Comparison of the two methods finds less than 2% difference, indicating good agreement between analytical and FEA results.
