摘要
The objective of crane control is to build an algorithm to move a load from point to point in the shortest time without inducing large swings. We assume that this objective cannot be accomplished in less than a single oscillation cycle of the load. Therefore, the controller is built to move the load such that it completes only one oscillation cycle at the end of the motion. Consequently, the settling time of the system should be equal to the period of oscillation of the load. This criterion enables the calculation of the controller feedback gains for varying load weight and cable length. The controller is built first for overhead cranes and then modified for tower cranes. Two controllers are used, one for the rotational motion of the tower and the other for the translational motion of the trolley. Numerical simulations show that the controller is effective in reducing the load oscillations and transferring the load in a reasonable time compared with that of optimal control.
