Abstract:
The strength and stiffness characteristics are important parameters in the design of metal structure of gantry crane. In this paper, the modeling of a gantry crane before and after reconstruction was performed by using Finite Element Method, and the strength and static stiffness of the gantry crane were analyzed. The results show that the insufficient stiffness of the reconstructed gantry crane in the shaking direction causes its laterodeviation. A strengthened method was determined after comparison of four reinforcement measures. The present results can provide an importantly theoretical basis for the reconstruction or strengthening of gantry cranes.

Today in the world, shipyards industry work continuously and build a ship in limited time. They need a lot of cranes in different tonnages to lift and move the parts of the ships. Projects of the cranes design in need of the shipyards. While designing the crane geometry, the load which will be lifted, the lifting height and the situation of the area where the crane will work should be considered. The main characteristics as the height of the crane, the distance between the rails, the lifting height, speed of the crane and speed of the trolley are determined.

The gantry cranes are currently one of the most popular devices to transporting loads. They can be used in many industries. This study focuses on the numerical analysis of only the portable gantry crane. The mathematical and numerical model of mechanical phenomena in the gantry crane beam was presented in this paper. This problem was solved by using of the Finite Element Method (FEM). The analysis was made to the cross-section of gantry crane beam which was the I-beam or box beam. The numerical simulations are limited to numerical analysis of strength of the gantry crane beam which was loaded by the motion of the load force along its length. As a result of the calculations, the stresses and displacements of the structure of gantry crane were obtained. The influence of beam shape change and changing the loading force position on generate the equivalent stress in the crane beam was evaluated. The research performed, which allows the estimated of the stress state, pointing out the critical areas and values, were made in order to increase the strength of the structure of the gantry crane.

Abstract:
This paper includes an analysis of the mechanical phenomena in the gantry crane beam, because the cranes are currently one of the most common devices for the transporting loads. Designing modern mechanical structures is a complex task that requires the use of appropriate tools. Such a modern tool is the numerical simulation, which uses different numerical methods. One of the best known methods is the finite element method, also used here. Simulations are limited to analysis of the strength of the gantry crane beam that was the loaded of the force load movement along its length. The numerical analysis was made to the gantry crane beam which cross-section was an I-beam and ends were fixed in different ways. As the result of numerical calculations, the stresses and displacements of the structure of gantry were obtained. The influence of the restraints type and changing the loading force position on generate the Huber-Misses stress in the gantry crane beam was estimated. The aim was to ensure that the maximum equivalent stress generated in the gantry crane beam was less than the strength of material, because then the construction is safe.

Gantry cranes are used throughout the materials handling industry. But conventional methods of power transfer to the cranes such as trolley conductor and wire directly connected have remained less than ideal, that is until the recent development of a novel wireless power transfer (WPT) system that is clean and spark-free, is robust to dust and water, and has very low maintenance. A 10kw WPT simulation system applied to gantry crane has been developed. The best compensation topology and the parameter have been studied in order to get high efficiency of the system. The study has been focused in showing the parameter design. Finally, the simulation has proved the validation of the proposed parameter design method.

Abstract:
The control problem of gantry cranes has attracted the attention of many researchers because of the various applications of these cranes in the industry. In this paper we propose two fuzzy controllers to control the position of the cart of a gantry crane while suppressing the swing angle of the payload. Firstly, we propose a dual PD fuzzy controller where the parameters of each PD controller change as the cart moves toward its desired position, while maintaining a small swing angle of the payload. This controller uses two fuzzy subsystems. Then, we propose a fuzzy controller which is based on heuristics. The rules of this controller are obtained taking into account the knowledge of an experienced crane operator. This controller is unique in that it uses only one fuzzy system to achieve the control objective. The validity of the designed controllers is tested through extensive MATLAB simulations as well as experimental results on a laboratory gantry crane apparatus. The simulation results as well as the experimental results indicate that the proposed fuzzy controllers work well. Moreover, the simulation and the experimental results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed control schemes against output disturbances as well as against uncertainty in some of the parameters of the crane.

Abstract:
In this thesis a class of robust non-linear controllers for a gantry crane system are discussed. The gantry crane has three degrees of freedom, all of which are interrelated. These are the horizontal traverse of the cart, the vertical motion of the goods (i.e. rope length) and the swing angle made by the goods during the movement of the cart. The objective is to control all three degrees of freedom. This means achieving setpoint control for the cart and the rope length and cancellation of the swing oscillations. A mathematical model of the gantry crane system is developed using Lagrangian dynamics. In this thesis it is shown that a model of the gantry crane system can be represented as two sub models which are coupled by a term which includes the rope length as a parameter. The first system will consist of the cart and swing dynamics and the other system is the hoist dynamics. The mathematical model of these two systems will be derived independent of the other system. The model that is comprised of the two sub models is verified as an accurate model of a gantry crane system and it will be used to simulate the performance of the controllers using Matlab. For completeness a fully coupled mathematical model of the gantry crane system is also developed. A detailed design of a gain scheduled sliding mode controller is presented. This will guarantee the controller's robustness in the presence of uncertainties and bounded matched disturbances. This controller is developed to achieve cart setpoint and swing control while achieving rope length setpoint control. A non gain scheduled sliding mode controller is also developed to determine if the more complex gain scheduled sliding mode controller gives any significant improvement in performance. In the implementation of both sliding mode controllers, all system states must be available. In the real-time gantry crane system used in this thesis, the cart velocity and the swing angle velocity are not directly available from the system. They will be estimated using an alpha-beta state estimator. To overcome this limitation and provide a more practical solution an optimal output feedback model following controller is designed. It is demonstrated that by expressing the system and the model for which the system is to follow in a non-minimal state space representation, LQR techniques can be used to design the controller. This produces a dynamic controller that has a proper transfer function, and negates the need for the availability of all system states. This thesis presents an alternative method of solving the LQR problem by using a generic eigenvalue solution to solve the Riccati equation and thus determine the optimal feedback gains. In this thesis it is shown that by using a combination of sliding mode and H??? control techniques, a non-linear controller is achieved which is robust in the presence of a wide variety of uncertainties and disturbances. A supervisory controller is also described in this thesis. The supervisory control is made up of a feedforward and a feedback component. It is shown that the feedforward component is the crane operator's action, and the feedback component is a sliding mode controller which compensates as the system's output deviates from the desired trajectory because of the operator's inappropriate actions or external disturbances such as wind gusts and noise. All controllers are simulated using Matlab and implemented in real-time on a scale model of the gantry crane system using the program RTShell. The real-time results are compared against simulated results to determine the controller's performance in a real-time environment.

Abstract:
The main objective of this work is to design robust, fast, and practical controllers for gantry and tower cranes. The controllers are designed to transfer the load from point to point as fast as possible and, at the same time, the load swing is kept small during the transfer process and completely vanishes at the load destination. Moreover, variations of the system parameters, such as the cable length and the load weight, are also included. Practical considerations, such as the control action power, and the maximum acceleration and velocity, are taken into account. In addition, friction effects are included in the design using a friction-compensation technique. The designed controllers are based on two approaches. In the first approach, a gain-scheduling feedback controller is designed to move the load from point to point within one oscillation cycle without inducing large swings. The settling time of the system is taken to be equal to the period of oscillation of the load. This criterion enables calculation of the controller feedback gains for varying load weight and cable length. The position references for this controller are step functions. Moreover, the position and swing controllers are treated in a unified way. In the second approach, the transfer process and the swing control are separated in the controller design. This approach requires designing two controllers independently: an anti-swing controller and a tracking controller. The objective of the anti-swing controller is to reduce the load swing. The tracking controller is responsible for making the trolley follow a reference position trajectory. We use a PD-controller for tracking, while the anti-swing controller is designed using three different methods: (a) a classical PD controller, (b) two controllers based on a delayed-feedback technique, and (c) a fuzzy logic controller that maps the delayed-feedback controller performance. To validate the designed controllers, an experimental setup was built. Although the designed controllers work perfectly in the computer simulations, the experimental results are unacceptable due to the high friction in the system. This friction deteriorates the system response by introducing time delay, high steady-state error in the trolley and tower positions, and high residual load swings. To overcome friction in the tower-crane model, we estimate the friction, then we apply an opposite control action to cancel it. To estimate the friction force, we assume a mathematical model and estimate the model coefficients using an off-line identification technique using the method of least squares. With friction compensation, the experimental results are in good agreement with the computer simulations. The gain-scheduling controllers transfer the load smoothly without inducing an overshoot in the trolley position. Moreover, the load can be transferred in a time near to the optimal time with small swing angles during the transfer process. With full-state feedback, the crane can reach any position in the working environment without exceeding the system power capability by controlling the forward gain in the feedback loop. For large distances, we have to decrease this gain, which in turn slows the transfer process. Therefore, this approach is more suitable for short distances. The tracking-anti-swing control approach is usually associated with overshoots in the translational and rotational motions. These overshoots increase with an increase in the maximum acceleration of the trajectories . The transfer time is longer than that obtained with the first approach. However, the crane can follow any trajectory, which makes the controller cope with obstacles in the working environment. Also, we do not need to recalculate the feedback gains for each transfer distance as in the gain-scheduling feedback controller.

Abstract:
This thesis presents an analysis of the kinematics of a mobile rubber tyred gantry crane (RTG Crane), as typically used for container handling operations, for the ultimate purposes of research into automation. Dynamical models are proposed for the crane based on a simplification of the structure into the gantry frame, the overhead trolley, and the cable mounted spreader slung below the trolley. The underlying trolley/spreader cabling geometry for commonly encountered designs has been analyzed, and novel mathematical relationships have been established for the first time. Full three dimensional motion is encompassed in the dynamical equations of motion, and various movement scenarios are examined. As an adjunct to the geometrical modelling a new phenomenon, described herein as geometrical extension, is defined in its role as an inherent anti-sway property in multi-cabled spreader suspension systems. The phenomenon is explained and investigated using pure geometry and a numerical method to assess its effect in practise. The final section of the thesis uses the single and multi-cable dynamics to evolve an accurate, and generic, fuzzy logic control and simulation for the RTG machine. Various performance scenarios are highlighted for typical freight manoeuvres. This work is now ready for experimental testing and evaluation in an allied project, thus the remit for the theoretical work of this thesis has been completed.

Abstract:
Cranes are increasingly used in transportation and construction. increasing demand and faster requirements necessitate better and more efficient controllers to guarantee fast turn-around time and to meet safety requirements. Container cranes are used extensively in ship-to-port and port-to-ship transfer operations. In this work, we will extend the recently developed delayed position feedback controller to container cranes. In contrast with traditional work, which models a crane as a simple pendulum consisting of a hoisting cable and a lumped mass at its end, we have modeled the crane as a four-bar mechanism. The actual configuration of the hoisting mechanism is significantly different from a simple pendulum. It consists typically of a set of four hoisting cables attached to four different points on the trolley and to four points on a spreader bar. The spreader bar is used to lift the containers. Therefore, the dynamics of hoisting assemblies of large container cranes are different from that of a simple pendulum. We found that a controller which treats the system as a four-bar mechanism has an improved response. We developed a controller to meet the following requirements: traverse an 80-ton payload 50 m in 21.5 s, including raising the payload 15 m at the beginning and lowering the payload 15 m at the end of motion, while reducing the sway to 50 mm within 5.0 s at the end of the transfer maneuver. The performance of the controller has been demonstrated theoretically using numerical simulation. Moreover, the performance of the controller has been demonstrated experimentally using a 1/10th scale model. For the 1/10th scale model, the requirements translate into: traverse an 80 kg payload 5 m in 6.8 s, including raising 1.5 m at the beginning and lowering 1.5 m at the end of motion, while reducing the sway to 5 mm in under 1.6 s. The experiments validated the controller.

Abstract:
Rotary Cranes (Tower Cranes) are common industrial structures that are used in building construction, factories, and harbors. These cranes are usually operated manually. With the size of these cranes becoming larger and the motion expected to be faster, the process of controlling them became dicult without using automatic control methods. In general, the movement of cranes has no prescribed path. Cranes have to be run under dierent operating conditions, which makes closed-loop control preferable. In this work, two types of controllers are studied: fuzzy logic and time-delayed position feedback controllers. The fuzzy logic controller is introduced first with the idea of split-horizon; that is, to use some fuzzy engines for tracking position and others for damping load oscillations. Then the time-delayed position feedback method is applied. Finally, an attempt to combine these two controllers into a hybrid controller is introduced. Computer simulations are used to verify the performance of these controllers. An experimental setup was built on which the time-delayed position feedback controller was tested. The results showed good performance.

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:
Traditionally, multi-mode command-shaping controllers are tuned to the system frequencies. This work suggests an opposite approach. A frequency-modulation (FM) strategy is developed to tune the system frequencies to match the frequencies eliminated by a single-mode command-shaper. The shaper developed in this work is based on a double-step command-shaping strategy. Using the FM Shaper, a simulated feedback system is used to modulate the closed-loop frequencies of a simulated double-pendulum model to the point where the closed-loop second mode frequency becomes an odd multiple of the closed-loop first mode frequency, which is the necessary condition for a satisfactory performance of a single-mode command-shaper. The double-step command-shaper is based on the closed-loop first mode frequency. The input commands to the plant of the simulated closed-loop system are then used to drive the actual double-pendulum. Performance is validated experimentally on a scaled model of a double-pendulum gantry crane.

Abstract:
Abstract Knowledge of vibrations and controls has increased significantly by utilizing emerging computer capabilities. Engineering education should embrace this technology through computer simulations that predict and display the dynamic response of interesting systems. For example, manipulating payloads with an overhead gantry crane can be challenging due to the oscillations induced by the crane motion. The problem gets increasingly difficult when the work environment is cluttered with obstacles. This paper describes a simple input shaping solution to the vibration problem and shows how this problem and concept were integrated into the curriculum of an undergraduate system dynamics and controls course at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Furthermore, an educational tool is used to gather data on how crane operators attempt to navigate around obstacles. The results show that input shaping reduces the likelihood of collisions between the payload and obstacles, while at the same time allowing operators to be more aggressive in selecting navigation paths.

Abstract:
A gantry cranes is generally modeled as a simple-pendulum with a point mass attached to the end of a massless rigid link. Numerous control systems have been developed to reduce payload oscillations in order to improve safety and positioning accuracy of crane operations. However, large-size payloads transforms the crane model from a simple-pendulum system to a double-pendulum system. Control systems that consider only one mode of oscillations of a double-pendulum may excite large oscillations in the other mode. In multi-degrees-of-freedom systems, command-shaping controllers designed for the first mode may eliminate oscillations of higher modes provided that their frequencies are odd integer multiples of the first mode frequency. In this work, a hybrid command-shaping controller is designed to generate acceleration commands to suppress travel and residual oscillations of a highly accelerated double-pendulum gantry crane. It is shown that the suggested hybrid command-shaper is capable of minimizing oscillations of both modes of a scaled experimental double-pendulum model of a gantry crane. Results show that the hybrid command-shaper produces a reduction of 95% in residual oscillations in both modes of the double-pendulum over the time-optimal rigid-body commands.
