Nestor Klan: Both should have the capability of designing them, or a collaboration between two. It depends on their peculiar training.
Trena Berum: Mechanical engineers are best equipped to design roller coasters. It also involves a civil engineering, math, physics, business, ergonomics, and graphic design among other disciplines. You could say roller coasters are designed by roller coaster engineers.
Burt Stoecklin: Mostly mechanical engineers design them, which takes allot of physics, math, and civil engineering to design or create the roller coaster.
Rosalba Lingner: Either a mechanical engineer or a civil engineer with a strong structural engineering back ground. I would think it would be a combination of several engineers. But I bet you find more Structural Civil Engineers. Those guys design and build structures that have to stand up to various loads. Typical ME don't do that.
Loriann Carrigan: Engineering Roller Coasters
Christiane C! attano: I think of that's lots extra cost-effective than the 'trial and mistake' approach of making one hundred failed curler coasters in the previous looking one that works. ;-D that's totally lots an excersize in physics. you may desire to correctly known the barriers of the human physique and be waiting to layout a experience that's the two interesting AND risk-free for the passengers. Doing mathematical calculations tells you precisely how lots stress would be exerted at any given ingredient on the riders to boot as a results of fact the autos and the form that make up the experience. i'm specific that's somewhat a desgn venture..........Show more
Marhta Teahan: Any product is rarely designed by one person or engineer. Teams of engineers design things. Mechanical, civil, electrical engineers all design certain components of a roller coaster. Would you want to design the structure? then civil is for you. the moving parts of the coaster and the actual coaster itself! ? then mechanical. The electrical controls? then electrical...! etc
Barton Sease: no, no, no...only mechanical engineers can design the whole thing. Civil can design the structure, but when things start moving they are screwed
Crazy ride designing falls under the space of the mechanical designer. Thrill ride fashioners must have the option to fill in as a feature of a group and have great communication abilities. No particular major exists in exciting ride designing, however a planning group is typically comprised of primary, electrical, and mechanical specialists.
