The concept, design, and experimental validation of the new Avancon Bridge in Bex, Switzerland, are described. The lightweight glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) sandwich bridge deck adhesively bonded to steel girders, reduced the traffic disruption per ...
Nonlinear vibration of a three-dimensional moving gantry crane carrying a trolley hoisting a swinging object is studied in this paper. A finite element method is used to solve nonlinear coupled governing equations of the structure. A combinational techniqu ...
A new crane design, labeled "SpiderCrane", is proposed to handle fast load displacements. Its main particularity is the absence of heavy mobile components. The system beeing underactuated, its control is challenging. Hence, as a step towards easier and mor ...
