Using Singular Perturbation Method for Controlling a Crane System with a Flexible Cable and Large Swing Angle

This paper aims to develop an advanced control system for an overhead crane with transverse vibrations of flexible cable while considering large angle of the cable swing. The control objective is to move the payload to a desired position and at the same time, to reduce the payload swing and to suppress the cable transverse vibrations only by applying a directional (horizontal) driving force to the trolley. The crane system with cable vibrations...
