Comparative analysis on the performance of different types of input‐ and command‐shaping controllers in minimizing payload residual vibration of an overhead crane with an inclined supporting track

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 22-33, March 2024.
Abstract Reducing the effects of external disturbance on overhead crane systems is crucial, as they can impair the controller performance and cause excessive vibrations or oscillations of the payloads. One such external disturbance is the inclination of the supporting track of the crane trolley, which causes the system dynamics model to change. An open‐

Technology adoption and innovation: The establishment of airmail and aviation innovation in the United States, 1918–1935

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 3-35, January 2024.
Abstract Research Summary This article explores how technology adoption can shape innovative activity. We study this issue within the historical context of the introduction and expansion of airmail across the United States between 1918 and 1935 using archival material and a novel dataset of early 20th century patents.

Fuzzy-tuned PID anti-swing control of automatic gantry crane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Anti-swing control is a well-known term in gantry crane control. It is designed to move the payload of gantry crane as fast as possible while the payload swing angle should be kept as small as possible at the final position.
