3 DOF Spherical Pendulum Oscillations with a Uniform Slewing Pivot Center and a Small Angle Assumption

الملخص EN

The present paper addresses the derivation of a 3 DOF mathematical model of a spherical pendulum attached to a crane boom tip for uniform slewing motion of the crane.

The governing nonlinear DAE-based system for crane boom uniform slewing has been proposed, numerically solved, and experimentally verified.

The proposed nonlinear and linearized models have been derived with an introduction of Cartesian coordinates.

The linearized model with small angle assumption has an analytical solution.

The relative and absolute payload trajectories have been derived.

The amplitudes of load oscillations, which depend on computed initial conditions, have been estimated.

The dependence of natural frequencies on the transport inertia forces and gravity forces has been computed.

The conservative system, which contains first time derivatives of coordinates without oscillation damping, has been derived.

The dynamic analogy between crane boom-driven payload swaying motion and Foucault’s pendulum motion has been grounded and outlined.

For a small swaying angle, good agreement between theoretical and averaged experimental results was obtained.
