0203 Active Control for Swing of Crane Load by Coriolis Force
Details
This paper describes an active control method by Coriolis force for swing reduction of a crane load. Coriolis force is generated when a mass on a wire of a crane moves up and down in the radial direction. The effect of vibration suppression is examined by numerical analysis and experiments. In this research, a wire of a crane is regarded as a rigid rod which is the simplest model. The effect of vibration suppression is linearly proportional to the angular amplitude of a crane. It is confirmed that the swing can be suppressed by the active Coriolis damper.
