Abstract

To study the cargo motion and sway characteristics of tower cranes to find effective methods to suppress the cargo sway and to position the cargo, we modeled the cargo sway, and then analyzed the equilibrium states of the cargo sway. The research results show that the center line of the cargo pendulum is declining, just as the cargo oscillates in the inclined gravity field because of there are inertia forces and the centrifugal forces.
