Modeling and energy-based fuzzy controlling for underactuated overhead cranes with load transferring, lowering, and persistent external disturbances

In practice, vertical load motion is always involved in overhead cranes. In this case, the cable length turns from a constant to a variable, which may induce large amplitude load swing and make it more challenging to develop an appropriate controller. Most existing control methods for varying-cable-...
