Dynamics Analysis and Engineering Applications of Multi-tagline Anti-swing System for Marine Cranes
Aiming at the problems such as low working efficiency,high risk,and low positioning accuracy of marine cranes under rough sea conditions,a multi-tagline anti-swing system for marine cranes was proposed.The multi-tagline anti-swing system was simplified into a constrained pendulum model excited by ship motions and wind loads.MATLAB/Simulink was used to simulate the dynamics characteristics of the multi-tagline anti-swing systems,and the multi-tagline anti-swing system of ma-rine cranes was verified on the experimental prototype.The experimental results show that the aver-age wobble reduction ratio of the system may reach 78%,which proves the effectiveness of the multi-tagline anti-swing systems.
