It expects demand of ships which equipped with JIB crane growth to continue. However, demand of JIB crane is increased, domestic shipment company imitated the design of Europe and Japan. And we need to develop the functional system of the JIB crane and modernize it. We need to find the optimum luffing angle for saving energy when JIB crane works. This study analyzed buckling load of JIB and reaction force of support point and stress of JIB according to the luffing angle through finite element analysis when JIB crane loads 40 ton weight. And this study considered the safety factor 1.8 of material. Every design condition was KS A1627 standard. This study used ANSYS 10.0.

The demand of JIB crane to handle a container or a bulk in a vessel is increasingly because of the growth of the scale of trade through the sea. This deck crane such as JIB crane is required the weight reduction design because it is installed in the deck of a vessel due to the environment regulation. In this study first we carry out the structural analysis of JIB with respect to the luffing angle of it to calculate the maximum equivalent stress of JIB, and next the optimum design for the weight reduction design of JIB. The thickness in a cross section of JIB is adopted as the design variable, the weight of JIB as the objective function, and the von mises stress as the constraint condition for the optimum design of JIB using the ANSYS 10.0.

It is very important to determine link composition of a crane in the basic design of the crane. There are many parameters in the design for the link composition of a double link type level luffing jib crane. We analyze the variation of link composition according to the variation of these parameters which are the angle of fixed link, the angle between the fixed link and backstay when the position of the crane is the maximum working radius, the ratio of fly jib length between two moving hinges to the total length of fly jib, the length of backstay, and the slewing radius. In this paper, we describe the application of the previous analysis program of the link composition design for a double link type level luffing jib crane.

In this paper constant-level luffing and time optimal control of a JIB crane is investigated. The crane is assumed to have only the derricking motion. the analysis of plance kinematics provides the relationship between the boom angle and the main hosit motor angle for constant-level luffing. The dynamic equations for the crane are very nonlimear, and therefore they are linearized for the application of the linear control theory. The time optimal control in the perspective of no-sway at the end of boom stroke is investigated.

This paper is a study on the link composition design of a double link type level luffing jib crane using path generation synthesis passing through three precision points according to parameters, the length of backstay, the ratio of fly jib length between two moving hinges to the total length of fly jib, the location of a intermediate passing point etc. when the maximum and minimum working radius of the crane are given. The performance of the crane depends on the deviation of the luffing trajectory at fly jib tip. The luffing trajectories according to the above parameters are analyzed and shown in graphs by the developed computer program. In a real-life design, some trials are needed to arrive at a proper link composition design. Therefore, it is expected that the present computer program can rapidly and exactly deal with a link composition design proper to the design criteria of the crane.

This paper investigates the constant-level luffing and time optimal control of jib cranes. The constant-level luffing, which is the sustainment of the load at a constant height during luffing, is achieved by analyzing the kinematic relationship between the angular displacement of a boom and that of the main hoist motor of a jib crane. Under the assumption that the main body of the crane does not rotate, the equations of motion of the boom are derived using Newton's Second Law. The dynamic equations for the crane system are highly nonlinear; therefore, they are linearized under the small angular motion of the load to apply linear control theory. This paper investigates the time optimal control from the perspective of no-sway at a target point. A stepped velocity pattern is used to design the moving path of the jib crane. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the time optimal control, in terms of anti-sway motion of the load, while luffing the crane.

The jib system with middle strut is widely used to achieve the large arm length in the large scale tower crane and the deployability in the mobile construction crane. In this paper, an analytical solution for the out-of-plane buckling of the jib system with middle strut is proposed. To obtain the analytical expression of the buckling characteristic equation, the method of differential equation was adopted by establishing the bending and torsional differential equation of the jib system under the instability critical state. Compared with the numerical solutions of the finite element software ANSYS, the analytical results in this work agree well with them. Therefore, the correctness of the results in this work can be confirmed. Then the influences of the lateral stiffness of the cable fixed joint, the dip angle of the strut, the inertia moment of the strut, and the horizontal position of the cable fixed joint on the out-of-plane buckling behavior of the jib system were investigated.

The purpose of this study is to investigate vulnerable parts of tower crane structures by analyzing extensive non-destructive test data. Approximately ten percent of domestically registered tower cranes were inspected by using magnetic particle inspection. The testing was carried out as advised in KS B 0213. The non-destructive results was analyzed with respect to jib types, age and crane size. As a result, the number of crack occurrences were the largest in mast parts, followed by main jib part. Moreover, it was found that turntables were important parts deserved to be noticed at the perspective of safe maintenance.

In this study, the deformation analysis is done at tower crane by applying the load at the end of jib and the moment at mast. The greatest stain and stress are happened at the end of wire supporting jib. The great deformation takes place at the end of jib applied by stress and there is no deformation at the lower part of mast. As the life becomes smallest at the upper part of mast, this part becomes weakest. The safety design and durability can be improved by applying the result of structural safety analysis at tower crane.
