Abstract:
A finite-element mechanical model is established aiming at the features of telescopic suspension arm of dirt-removing crane in practice, such as that there exist many compound modes, the range of variation in lifting weight is big, etc. The strength, stiffness and stability of suspension arm is calculated and optimized based on ANSYS (software). The result of conventional design, which is checked and revised, tallies with the measured value relatively and may provide valuable reference for the design of suspension arm, which is to some extent significant to prolonging the fatigue life of cranes.

Abstract:
Nowadays, with patented technologies for the production of goods, the possibility of reducing their cost in order to maintain a competitive position in the commodity markets is supported by the rational organization of transportation. Thus, the transport component in the final cost of transported goods is reduced. At the same time, when using the same handling, lifting and transporting equipment from a limited number of global manufacturers, the possibility of reducing the cost of transport operations (both shipping and handling, including loading/unloading) depends only on their rational use. One of the mechanisms for rationalizing the loading and unloading operations carried out by container terminals is the rationalization of cargo plans of the serviced container ships. The versatility of their development is determined, first of all, by high requirements for the safety of navigation, which determine the provision of the necessary stability, unsinkability, the absence of a heel and difference that interfere with the work, the required sitting of the ship in the water, etc. On the other hand, the rational placement of containers in the slots and on the hatches covers of the container ships, corresponding to the voyage rotation (the sequence of visiting terminals on the trip in progress), provides an increase in the share of productive movements of handling, lifting and transporting equipment, reduces the required time for a ship to be under loading and unloading operations, which reduces the time of a group of ship trips on a string. Such calculations are complicated by the fact that the handling equipment used during the loading and unloading operations on a separate ship operates conditionally autonomously, each unit - for its own section of the ship (“bay”). Thus, the task can be solved only in a complex manner, coupled with the task of cranes allocation over the berth. The paper studies the issues of cargo planning of liner container ships from the standpoint of reducing the time of ship’s turnaround time due to rational assignment and use of port handling equipment.

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.

Abstract:
Bridge and gantry cranes are crucially important elements in the industrial complex; they are used in many areas such as shipping, building construction, steel mills, and nuclear facilities, just to name a few. These types of systems tend to be highly flexible in nature, generally responding to commanded motion with oscillations of the payload and hook. The response of these systems to external disturbances, such as wind, is also oscillatory in nature. Often, the oscillations of the hook and payload have undesirable consequences. For instance, precise manipulation of payloads is difficult when cable sway is present. Oscillation of the hook can also present a safety hazard. For these reasons, the ability to successfully negate these detrimental dynamics can result in improved positioning, quicker settling time, and improved safety. This thesis addresses the dynamic properties of bridge and gantry cranes in an effort to develop a control scheme that enables strides to be made in these areas of positioning, efficiency, and safety. The fundamental advancement arising from this thesis is the development of a control scheme that enables precise positioning of the payload while motion and disturbance-induced oscillations are eliminated. A command generation technique uniquely suited for reducing oscillation in low-frequency flexible systems is examined and utilized in the control. The control scheme is implemented on a 10-ton bridge crane for validation purposes.

Abstract:
Complex mechanical systems, such as tower cranes, are known to be highly nonlinear, under-actuated, and non-colocated, which makes their closed-loop control very challenging. The interconnected components of these systems undergo complex dynamic phenomena, such as friction, which lead to energy or momentum transmission delays. The complexity of such systems is further complicated by external disturbances and nonlinearities resulting from using hydraulic and/or electrical actuators, mechanical joints, gears, etc., which result in the formation of dead-zones, backlash, and hysteresis. A dead-zone, which constitutes a significant non-smooth nonlinearity, severely limits the performance of many mechanical systems such as the tower crane. Previous works on the control of tower cranes were based on accurate determination of their actuated states. In this work, a robust control technique based on adaptive fuzzy theory is investigated for anti-swing and trajectory tracking of tower crane systems. The system is subject to uncertainties in parameter parameters, time delays, external disturbances, and unknown actuator nonlinearities. The unknown actuator nonlinearities, from the jib and tower motors, are characterized by dead-zone bands (as opposed to the typical crisp dead-zone functions). First, fuzzy logic systems with on-line adaptations are utilized to evaluate the unknown nonlinear functions. The proposed control scheme uses the H∞ control technique to develop compensators to overcome the effects of parameter variations, time delays, external disturbances, and unknown actuator dead-zone band nonlinearities. The proposed control scheme ensures the stability of the closed-loop system and achieves desired tracking precision such that the states of the tower crane system are ultimately uniformly bounded (UUB) and guarantees an H∞ norm bound constraint on disturbance attenuation for all admissible uncertainties based on the Lyapunov criterion. Simulation results show the validity of this approach for the tower crane system.
