Abstract
In this paper, we consider a mass damper type of swing motion control system for a crane in which a small auxiliary mass is installed on the spreader. The actuator reacting against the auxiliary mass applies inertial control forces to the spreader of the container crane to reduce the swing motion in the desired manner. In this paper, we consider that the length of the rope is varied in the specified range and we design the anti-sway control system based on gain-scheduling approach. And, we investigate usefulness of the proposed anti-sway system and evaluate system performance from experimental study.
