In this paper, the dynamics of a new type of container crane, in which eight ropes connect
the trolley and spreader in a triangle-trapezoid shape, is developed. The triangle-trapezoid …

This paper discusses the dynamics and control problem of an overhead shuttle system
(OSS), which is a critical part of the automated container terminal at a port. The main …

Recently, machining centers have been actively adopting high-speed positioning systems to
enhance operational efficiency and productivity. This study focuses on applying input …

In this paper, a super-twisting (ie, modified 2nd-order) sliding mode control (STSMC) is
proposed for sway control of an offshore container crane system (ie, a mobile harbor system …

In this paper, residual sway control of objects that are moved underwater is investigated. The
fuel transfer system in a nuclear power plant transfers the nuclear fuel rods underwater. The …
