This paper deals with an anti-sway control for a ship-mounted container crane which is disturbed by the wave-induced motions of the ship. We derive a simple dynamics of the ship-mounted container crane with an active anti-sway control system and transform it into a dynamic function for a horizontal variable on the absolute coordinate. Then we propose an control method to reduce pendulation of the spreader and compare its performance with well-known feedback linearization control in computer simulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
