Abstract

This paper presents a novel method for adaptive anti-swing fuzzy logic control for overhead cranes with hoisting. The control action is distributed between three fuzzy logic controllers (FLC’s): trolley controller, hoist controller, and anti-swing controller. A method for varying the ranges of the variables of the three controllers as a function of the crane’s parameters and/or motion variables is presented. Simulation examples show that the proposed controller can successfully drive overhead cranes under various operating conditions.
