متن کاملAnti-Swing Fuzzy Control of Overhead Traveling Crane
A new fuzzy controller for anti-swing and positioning control of an overhead traveling crane is proposed based on the SIRMs (Single Input Rule Modules) dynamically connected fuzzy inference model. The trolley position and velocity, the rope swing angle and angular velocity are selected as input items, and the trolley acceleration as output item. With a simple structure, the controller can auton...
