Abstract
The paper deals with the analysis of moving trolley effects on the dynamic behavior of flexible structure of a mega high-performance quayside container crane (QCC) boom. The boom is modeled as a system with distributed parameters, comprising reduced stiffnesses and lumped masses from other parts of the upper structure. This paper looks both at the “moving force” and “moving mass” trolley modeling approaches to achieve the required performance of the QCC boom structure. Deterministic simulation for both considered approaches gives dynamic structural response of the boom for container transfer from quay-to-ship. The obtained results for “moving force” and “moving mass” models are compared in the scope of real values of parameters and future expectations in design of QCC. The conclusions lead to an appropriate way of model selection that can be used by engineers in practice.
