Simulation and Control of an Anti-Swing System for a Suspended Load attached to a moving Base Robot
Master's thesis Mechatronics MAS500 - University of Agder 2018 Advanced motion compensation is an important eld of engineering in today's o shore industry. Performing advanced load handling operations at sea requires high attention to both safety and e ciency. In environments governed by wave motion and harsh weather conditions, these types of operations are complex tasks. Most of the load handling scenarios are performed by advanced o shore loader cranes, where many of these are equipped with the industry's state-of-the-art Active Heave Compensation. This technology is capable of compensating for the wave height disturbance, meaning that the load is kept at a constant height above the sea …
