OPTIMAL MANOEUVRES OF UNDERACTUATED LINEAR MECHANICAL SYSTEMS: THE CASE OF CONTROLLING GANTRY CRANE OPERATIONS

Optimal Manoeuvres of Underactuated Linear Mechanical Systems: The Case of Controlling Gantry Crane Operations

A method of solving optimal manoeuvre control of linear underactuated mechanical systems is presented.The nonintegrable constraints present in such systems are handled by MASS STRAWBERRY adding dummy actuators and then by applying Lagrange multipliers to reduce their action to zero.The open- and closed-loop control schemes can be analyzed.The metho

Development of high performance fiber reinforced cement composites (HPFRCC) for application as a transition layer of reinforced beams

This study presents the development and behavior analysis of Lubricants high performance fiber reinforced cement composites (HPFRCC).The describedmaterials were specifically developed for application as a transition layer: a repair layer that constitutes the stressed chord of reinforcedconcrete beams strengthened in flexure with carbon fiber reinfo
