Abstract:
Abstract Definition of types, amount and positions of cranes in construction site planning has a big impact on the overall productivity and cost effectiveness of a construction project. It is not rare, that engineers during preparation phase of construction fault in crane selection. It implies big financial losses for the company because of wrong crane rent. In visualisation of mobile crane operation in 3D is noticeable that working radius of the crane is considerably less then number listed in crane technical documentation (capacity chart). The built construction itself can reduce the crane radius when the crane boom snags the built object edge. Several computer applications were developed in order to help practitioners in selecting and using of cranes. In the paper is presented one version of non-commercial software tool (Mobile Crane Simulator) useful in construction preparation as a tool for selecting and locating of the mobile crane at construction sites. The tool was developed by authours of the paper. The principles of the tool creation are also explained.

Abstract:
Mobile cranes have been used extensively as essential equipment at construction sites. The productivity improvement of the mobile crane affects the overall productivity of the construction project. Hence, various studies have been conducted regarding mobile crane operation planning. However, studies on solving RCP (the repositioning mobile crane problem) are insufficient. This article presents a mobile crane reposition route planning optimization method (RPOS) that minimizes the total operating time of mobile crane. It converts the construction site into a mathematical model, determines feasible locations of the mobile crane, and identifies near-global optimal solution (s) (i.e., the placement point sequences of mobile crane) by implementing genetic algorithm and dijkstra’s algorithm. The study is of value to practitioners because RPOS provides an easy-to-use computerized tool that reduces the lengthy computations relative to data processing and Genetic Algorithms (GAs). Test cases verify the validity of the computational method.

Abstract:
While up-right build structures are under construction, an over-hung crane has a major role in efficient lifting and transporting heavy materials from one point to another. There are several types of cranes for a variety of construction sites, such as bridge/overhead, barge lift, tower crane, etc. The mobile crane is one of the most widely used types of construction equipment due to its mobility. Unfortunately, the number of crane accidents including casualties and deaths has increased over the last decade. In order to reduce these fatal tragedies, a dynamic simulator of mobile cranes based on analyzed overturn limit data has been developed and analysis results have been applied to site tests. The test bench is formulated to simulate the actual construction field and some practical experiments have been performed in realistic manners of operation. Moreover, wireless network communication systems are applied for monitoring the status of the crane from a distance where visibility is not secure. Consequently, the applicability in the field derived from operating the simulator and actual vehicle testing confirmed the feasibility of applying it to construction sites.

Abstract One of the main problems in the maritime container terminals is inefficient use of technical (quay cranes, yard cranes, mobile cranes) and human resources. All this affects negatively the scheduling of transportation and storage processes in the terminals. A new method proposed for the multicrane scheduling in maritime container terminals is based on the wireless inter-crane communication networks and dynamical localization of the mobile cranes using the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) technologies. It is shown that this method outperforms significantly the currently used owing to better time dependence of the crane traveling distance which allows for saving time resources.

Abstract:
Ensuring the safety and efficiency of crane operation is challenging due to the complexity of the lifting operation. The real-time lifting path planning system developed in this paper aims to provide an optimized, collision-free lifting path for mobile crane operators. The first contribution of the developed system is to take advantage of crane mounted sensors and components as the hardware to collect object information. No additional device needs to be purchased. Secondly, the data storage, path planning, optimizing, and visualizing functions are designed to minimize the required computer memory so that the system can be installed and applied on the crane mounted controller for real-time operation. No additional calculation capacity is required. This system has been tested in real construction sites and demonstrated its ability to generate lifting paths satisfying operators’ expectation. The system, as an independent software package, can be installed on any mobile cranes mounted with the necessary hardware.

Depending on the type of truck crane operation as well as on the fact whether the aim of the article is to conduct the dynamic analysis of the whole truck crane or only that of one of its components, simpler mechanical models are also offered. The presented model is more realistic than those describing the dynamic behaviour of the truck-crane performing all necessary functions, i.e. a mobile means of lifting, transportation and reloading.

Abstract:
Overturning occurs in an unacceptabtably high proportion of accidents to mobile cranes. These are often considered to operate as static machines and empirical factors are used to make allowance for dynamic effects. This paper examines a number of static and dynamic effects that contribute to a reduction in crane stability. It introduces the concept of a ‘stability quotient’ to indicate the ratio of an overturning moment under dynamic conditions to its static equivalent. The results of tests to verify theoretical findings are discussed. A reduction in slewing speeds is one of the principal recommendations.

Abstract:
PurposeProperly planned module installation on an industrial site is a critical factor in delivering a project safely, on time and within budget. Different sizes of heavy-duty mobile cranes are used to pick, swing and place the modules. Crane selection depends on module size and weight, as well as crane availability, location and configuration. Weeks can be spent in trial and error to prepare and improve module installation plans due to the large number of ways to install the modules on site, high crane operating costs and other crane-module constraints. A tool to automatically generate module installation plans is essential.Design/methodology/approachThis paper presents a novel heuristic-based methodology for planning and sequencing module installation on industrial construction sites that takes into account proposed technological constraints.FindingsCase studies are presented to demonstrate the ease and effectiveness of the developed methodology in planning module installations.Originality/valueOn a complex project, the tool can save time in preparing the installation plan, while also reducing the amount of crane supporting tasks (foundation preparation and crane movement).

Abstract:
The work environment of a mobile crane is hazardous where accidents can cause serious injuries or death for workers and non-workers. Therefore, the risk for these accidents should be avoided when possible. One way to avoid the potential accidents is to use mobile crane simulations instead, which removes the risk. Because of this, simulations have been developed to train operators and plan future operations. Mobile crane simulations can also be used to perform research related to mobile cranes, but for the result to be applicable to real-world settings the simulation has to be realistic enough. Therefore, this thesis evaluated an aspect of realism which is the lifting capacity of a mobile crane. This was done by having an artificial neural network train on values from load charts of a real crane, that was then used to predict the lifting capacities based on the boom length and the load radius of the virtual crane. An experiment was conducted in the simulation that collected the predicted lifting capacities which was then compared to the lifting capacities in the load charts of a real crane. The results showed that the lifting capacities could be predicted with little to no deviation except for in a few cases. When conducting the experiment, it was found that the virtual mobile crane could not reach all load radiuses documented in the real load charts. The predicted lifting capacities are concluded to be realistic enough for crane-related research, but should be refined if the lifting capacity plays a key role in the research. Future works such as improving and generalizing the artificial network, and performing the evaluation with user tests are prompted.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this thesis is to investigate the wheel/rail/girder interaction of overhead cranes. Three components of the above mentioned interaction system are considered. • The contact interaction between the crane wheel and the rail and its effects on the rail stresses. • The stress distribution in thin webbed rails and the location of critical stresses in the rail. • The load distribution between the rail foot and the crane girder with the inclusion of elastomeric pads. The steps followed for the purpose of this investigation were: • The creation of a numerical wheel-rail interaction model with the finite element method. • The experimental and analytical verification of the numerical results. • An analysis of the wheel/rail/girder interaction system variables on the basis of the numerical results. The following conclusions were drawn from the investigation: • The variables with the greatest influence on the wheel-rail contact patch shape, size and critical stress are the crane wheel diameter and the railhead curvature radius. • It is the position of the above mentioned contact patch relative to the rail symmetry plane, rather than the wheel-rail contact patch size, shape and critical stress, that has a significant influence on the rail stress distribution as a whole. • Critical stresses in thin webbed rails are found at the web-foot and web-head junctions. • The load distribution between the rail foot and the girder, in case elastomeric pads are included, can be described using the beam on elastic foundation theory.

Die stappe vir die ondersoek was as volg: • Die skepping van 'n numeriese wiel-spoor interaksie model met die eindige element metode. • Die eksperimentele en analitiese verifikasie van numeriese resultate. • Die analise van die wiel/spoor/ondersteunende balk sisteem veranderlikes gebaseer op numeriese resultate. Die belangrikste resultate van die ondersoek was dat: • Die veranderlikes met die grootste invloed op die grote, vorm en kritieke spannings van die wiel-spoor kontak area is die kraan wiel radius en die radius van die spoor se bo-vlak kromming. Dit is die posisie van bogenoemde kontak area relatieftot die simmetrievlak van die spoor, in plaas van die wiel-spoor kontak area grote, vorm ofkritieke spanning, wat 'n deurslaggewende invloed op die spanningsverdeling in die kraanspoor het. • Kritieke spannings in spore met dunwandige webbe word aan die bokant en onderkant van die spoor web aangetref. • Die spanningsverdeling tussen die onderste spoor flens en die bo flens van die ondersteunende balk kan, in die geval dat 'n elastomeriese strook tussen bogenoemde flense ingesluit word, met die gebruik van balk op elastiese fondament teorie beskryf word.

Abstract:
Boom cranes are one of the most dynamically complicated types of cranes because they possess rotational joints as opposed to the linear tracks of bridge and gantry cranes. In addition, if the boom crane is placed on a mobile base, additional complexity is added to the system. However, mobile boom cranes have huge potential benefits as they can be quickly transported from one location to another. Furthermore, if they utilize their mobile base during lifting operations, then they can have an extremely large workspace. All cranes share the same limiting weakness; the payload oscillates when the crane moves. A command-generation approach is taken to control the payload oscillation. Input shaping is one such command-generation technique that modifies the original reference command by convolving it with a series of impulses. The shaped command produced by the convolution can then move the crane without inducing payload oscillation. Input shaping can accommodate parameter uncertainties, nonlinearities, multiple modes of vibration, and has been shown to be compatible with human operators. This thesis focuses on three aspects of mobile boom cranes: 1) dynamic analysis, 2) input-shaping control, and 3) experimental testing. A majority of the thesis focuses on analyzing and describing the complicated dynamics of mobile boom cranes. Then, various input-shaping controllers are designed and tested, including two-mode shapers for double-pendulum dynamics. In order to experimentally verify the simulation results, a small-scale mobile boom crane has been constructed. The details of the mobile boom crane and its important features are presented and discussed. Details of the software used to control the crane are also presented. Then, several different experimental protocols are introduced and the results presented. In addition, a set of operator performance studies that analyze human operators maneuvering the mobile boom crane through an obstacle course is presented.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the dynamics and control of a Rubber Tyred Gantry (RTG) crane which are commonly used in container handling operations. Both theoretical and experimental work has been undertaken to ensure the balance of this research. The concept of a Global Sensing System (GSS) is outlined, this being a closed loop automatic sensing system capable of guiding the lifting gear (spreader) to the location of the target container by using feedback signals from the crane's degrees of freedom. To acquire the crucial data for the coordinates and orientation of the swinging spreader a novel visual sensing system (VSS) is proposed. In addition algorithms used in the VSS for seeking the central coordinates of the clustered pixels from the digitised images are also developed. In order to investigate the feasibility of different control strategies in practise, a scaled-down, 1/8, experimental crane rig has been constructed with a new level of functionality in that the spreader in this rig is equipped with multiple cables to emulate the characteristics of a full-size RTG crane. A Crane Application Programming Interface (CAPI) has been proposed to reduce the complexity and difficulty in integrating the control software and hardware. It provides a relatively user-friendly environment in which the end-user can focus on implementing the more fundamental issues of control strategies, rather spending significant amounts of time in low-level device-dependent programming. A control strategy using Feedback Linearization Control (FLC) is investigated. This can handle significant non-linearity in the dynamics of the RTG crane. Simulation results are provided, and so by means of the CAPI this controller is available for direct control of the experimental crane rig. The final part of the thesis is an integration of the analyses of the different subjects, and shows the feasibility of the real-time implementation.

Abstract:
This thesis investigated a tip-over stability of mobile boom cranes with swinging payloads. Base and crane motion presents a tip-over problem. Attaching complex payloads further complicates the problem. They study began with a single-pendulum payload to analyze a tip-over stability characteristics under different conditions. A simple tip-over prediction model was developed with a goal of limiting a computational cost to a minimum. The stability was characterized by a tip-over stability margin method. The crane's tip-over stability was also represented by the maximum possible payload it can carry throughout the workspace. In a static stability analysis, mobile boom crane was assumed to be stationary, thus with no payload swing. The study provided basic understanding on the relationship between tip-over stability and boom configuration. In a pseudo-dynamic stability analysis, the method incorporated payload swing into the analysis by adding estimated maximum payload swing due to motions. To estimate the angles, differential equations of motions of payload swings were derived. The thesis extended the study to a double-pendulum payload. The maximum swing angles estimated in the single-pendulum case were directly applied to the double-pendulum case. To validate the analytical methods, a full dynamic multi-body simulation model of a mobile boom crane was developed. The predictions from the previous analysis were verified by the simulation results. The prediction model and the analytical methods in the thesis provide a significant tool for practical application of tip-over stability analysis on mobile boom cranes. The experimental results increase the confidence of the study's accuracy.

Research on cranes and crane support structures has been completed at Stellenbosch University’s Structural Division. In order to link the research already completed with that which is practically relevant, an industry related expert survey was proposed. Consequently, the research title is “Best Practice of Crane Support Structures Design – An Expert Survey”. The primary objective of the study is to complete research, which can be used at a later stage to compile a “best practice” guideline for support structures design. The expert survey allows practical experience and opinion to be gathered from experts. The primary drawback being the uncertainty involved in such opinionated research material. For this reason an attempt is made in the thesis to apply a scientific approach, in order to attain rationally defendable results. The survey was conducted using interviews with experienced crane support structure designers and crane manufacturers in South Africa. The experts were then rated according to their answers to seeded questions, the number of colleague recommendations they each received and the years of experience each expert has. The expert opinion was subsequently combined using the expert ratings as weights. To further improve the scientific rationale behind the results, several of the topics mentioned by the experts were verified using related literature - thereby validating the use of the combined expert opinion for this research. The results obtained from the survey and verification process are regarded as useful to the objectives of the study. Information concerning pre-design specifications, loads and actions, structural analysis, design, design details and fatigue was compiled. The direct results are tabulated in an appendix and commentary, based on the expert opinions, is provided. A failure investigation was also completed with less success than initially intended. This was due, in part, to confidentiality issues and a lack of failure information easily accessible to the experts. For this reason the results of the failure investigation focuses more on various failure mechanisms. The success of the survey indicates that expert opinion is a useful tool for research. Furthermore, the minor differences in expert opinion, when compared to information obtained from crane support structure literature, indicates that the expertise in the South African crane support structure design is at an international standard.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Electric driven overhead travelling bridge cranes (EOHTC) form a vital part of industrial plants where heavy objects require moving. Overhead travelling cranes aid in production by allowing an uninterrupted work process on the ground while heavy loads are moved to their required locations. Various factors need consideration in determining the loads induced by an EOHTC on its support structure. In order to design such a support structure, the designer must understand and take into account the various loads that the support structure will be subject to during its lifetime. The procedure for determining the loads induced by the EOHTC on its support structure is laid out in the SANS 10160-6:2010 code of practice. This document was published in June 2010 and as a result very few worked examples exist to test the coherence of the procedure. This thesis presents an investigation into the procedure for determining the actions induced by overhead travelling bridge cranes adopted in the SANS 10160-6:2010 code of practice. The investigation was conducted by developing a software application to automatically determine the necessary crane actions needed for the design of the crane support structure, given certain input parameters. The motivation behind this was to have a tool that can calculate the crane induced loads automatically. And by developing such a tool the procedure given in the code of practice is better understood. The Java programming language was used to code the calculations with an object oriented programming approach (OOP). NetBeans, the integrated development environment for developing with Java was used to generate the required graphical user interface of the application. In addition, a Microsoft Excel calculation sheet was also developed for the purpose of comparison and verification. Whilst developing the software application, it was found that the model for the acceleration or deceleration of the crane was specific for four wheel cranes only. This model was then extended to accommodate eight and sixteen wheel cranes and incorporated into the algorithm architecture of the application. The application was successfully completed and verified using benchmarked examples.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Elektriese oorhoofse brugkrane vorm ‘n belangrike deel van baie nywerheidsprosesse, waar dit gebruik word om swaar laste in die nywerheidsaanleg te verskuif. Oorhoofse brugkrane voeg waarde by die produksie lyn deur te sorg dat die werksproses op die grond onversteurd voortgaan terwyl swaar laste na hul vereiste posisies verskuif word. Verskillende faktore moet in ag geneem word om die nodige kraanlaste te bepaal. Hierdie laste word benodig om die kraan se ondersteuningstruktuur te ontwerp. Die ontwerper moet die nodige kundigheid hê en moet ook die verskeie laste in ag neem wat die ondersteuningstruktuur gedurende sy leeftyd sal dra. SANS 10160-6:2010 verskaf riglyne vir die bepaling van die laste wat deur oorhoofse brugkrane uitgeoefen word. Hierdie dokument is in Junie 2010 gepubliseer dus bestaan daar min uitgewerkte voorbeelde om die korrektheid van die riglyne te toets en toepassing te demonstreer. Hierdie proefskrif ondersoek die riglyne vir die bepaling van oorhoofse brugkraan aksies soos uiteengesit in die SANS 10160-6:2010. Die navorsing is uitgevoer deur middel van die ontwikkeling van ‘n sagteware toepassing wat die nodige oorhoofse brugkraanlaste automaties bepaal, gegee sekere invoer waardes. Die rede hiervoor was om ‘n hulpmiddel te ontwikkel vir die outomatiese bepaling van oorhoofse brugkraan. Deur die bogenoemde hulpmiddel te ontwikkel word die riglyne, soos gegee in die kode beter verstaan. Java is gebruik as programmeringstaal waar die objek geörienteerde programeringstyl toegepas was. Die geintegreerde ontwikkelingsomgewing vir ontwikkeling met Java, naamlik NetBeans is gebruik om die nodige gebruikers koppelvlak op te bou. ‘n Microsoft Excel sigblad is ook ontwikkel vir kontrolerings doeleindes. Gedurende die ontwikkeling van die sagtewarepakket is dit bevind dat die lasmodel vir die versnelling of vertraging van die oorhoofse brugkraan slegs op vierwiel krane van toepasing is. Hierdie lasmodel is dus uitgebrei om agt- en sestienwiel krane ook te bevat. Die lasmodel aanpassing is dan ook in die program se algoritme-argitektuur ingebou. Die sagteware toepassing is suksesvol ontwikkel en gekontroleer met ‘n maatstaf voorbeeld.

Abstract:
Cranes are used extensively throughout the world in a wide variety of construction and material handling applications. The speed at which these cranes are operated is limited by payload oscillation. Input shaping is one method that reduces this oscillation, allowing higher speeds and improving operational efficiency. Another method to improve the operational capabilities of cranes is to allow base motion. This paper presents initial experimental results from a portable, mobile tower crane. A theoretical model of the crane is presented and experimentally verified. The oscillatory dynamics of the crane are highlighted and controllers to combat these unwanted dynamics are presented.

Abstract:
Dual-crane lifting has been generally used with the need of erection and installation of large equipment. Choosing proper locations for two mobile cranes is an important work as well as a difficulty in design of heavy lifting plan. So, this paper proposes an optimization method of location for cooperative lifting of dual-crane. This approach starts with determining search field and maximum step length, and then finds out load’s possible initial locations by bisection method; secondly calculates work envelope of dual-crane which will be dispersed to find all dual-crane’s possible locations; after this, it puts cranes in their respective possible locations corresponding to each load’s location and simulates the whole lifting course while carries out collision detection to exclude crash happened locations; finally, creates weighted optimization function, uses enumeration method to traverse all collision-free locations, and gains optimal location of dual-crane and load. At last, this approach has been used in an actual engineering case and optimal location is got, from which we can see its feasibility and validity.

Abstract:
An approach to systematically deriving the optimal use of operator-in-the-loop machinery is presented. The operation is considered as a set of design variables that similarly to classical design variables such as geometry and materials may be manipulated with a view to reach certain performances. The emphasis of the paper is on mobile loader cranes and an example on the development of the lifting capacity diagram of such a crane is used to illustrate the potential benefits of employing the presented approach. In general, physical data is not given for the loader crane due to limited space, however, the authors will be happy to provide more details for anyone interested.

Abstract:
Crawler cranes are the most expensive and frequently shared resource on construction sites, industries, etc. It is engaged in offering various combination for booms and large-capacity of mobile cranes to meet the building industry requirements. Computer simulation has proved to be an effective tool for aiding practitioners in modeling complex construction operations, especially three-dimensional simulation that can provide interactive, three-dimensional graphics. As a graphic standard, OpenGL has powerful three-dimensional graphic processing abilities, but is weakness in three-dimensional modeling. Bounding Hierarchical Volumes Tree (BHVT) is very popular structures for objects storage of virtual scenes. Based on BHVT, a method of three-dimensional modeling is proposed. According to its structure and characteristics, the model of the crawler crane is designed. To achieve three-dimensional simulation for a main hoisting crane and an assistant crane (i.e., sliding tail crane) cooperative lifting, several typical mathematical models are established. When simulating the lifting process in the cooperative working mode, the changes of cranes and the lifting equipment, needed for steady lifting, are figured out simultaneously, and then those changes are output to form the relevant curves. The curves are analyzed to decide whether the lifting plan that using a main hoisting crane and a sliding tail crane to lift is safe and reasonable. For the sake of a better interactive simulation, object-oriented framework for three-dimensional graphic creation based on OpenGL is developed, it consists of class BHVTNode, class camera and class renderer, which make data and instructions separated. Combining the class camera and class renderer with the technology BHVT, succeed to simulate the lifting operations of crawler crane, especially achieve the animation of the cooperative lifting, it is visual to observe the whole lifting process, which is good for assisting to design the lifting plan.
