چکیده
A virtual laboratory is one of the techniques how to allow students of the distance learning gather experiences with the practical experiments. Several German universities are currently developing in the 'LearnNet' project, a network of remotely accesible virtual laboratories that will be shared by their students. We present our contribution to this project, a laboratory for inverted pendulum/gantry crane control. Through its development, several new components were used. This paper discusses the technical structure and utilization of the laboratory.

Experimental Investigation on Active Sway Control of a Gantry Crane System using PID Controller
This project presents an experimental investigations into the development proportional integral derivative (PID) control schemes for active sway control of a gantry crane system. The main objective of controlling a gantry crane is to transport the load as fast as possible without causing any unnecessary swing at the final position. The proposed controller is used as a feedback control which is ...
متن کاملRecent Simulation Conclusions for Damped-oscillation Control of Cranes
When suspended payloads are moved with an overhead crane, pendulum like oscillations are naturally introduced. This presents a problem any time a crane is used, especially when expensive and/or delicate objects are moved, when moving in a cluttered and/or hazardous environment, and when objects are to be placed in tight locations. For example, one nuclear waste-handling operation examined by th...
متن کاملMINIMUM TIME SWING UP AND STABILIZATION OF ROTARY INVERTED PENDULUM USING PULSE STEP CONTROL
This paper proposes an approach for the minimum time swing upof a rotary inverted pendulum. Our rotary inverted pendulum is supported bya pivot arm. The pivot arm rotates in a horizontal plane by means of a servomotor. The opposite end of the arm is instrumented with a joint whose axisis along the radial direction of the motor. A pendulum is suspended at thejoint. The task is to design a contro...
متن کاملA PID Tuning Method for Tracking Control of an Underactuated Gantry Crane
Abstract By the current research, a PID tuning procedure is developed to control of an overhead crane. To enable the crane to reach a desired position, a controller design strategy must be used. This work presents a simple and efficient enough approach to control of the overhead crane based on designing a PID controller. Ziegler-Nichols method is used to initiate gains setting for PID controlle...
متن کاملReal-Time Physics Simulation Packages: An Evaluation Study
This paper includes a review of three physics simulation packages that can be used to provide researchers with a virtual ground for modeling, implementing and simulating complex models, as well as testing their control methods with less cost and time of development. The inverted pendulum model was used as a test bed for comparing ODE, DANCE and Webots, while Linear State Feedback was used to co...
