Offshore Crane

It is often desirable to keep the load of an offshore crane in a fixed point in space despite the movement of its base. To solve the problem of stabilizing the load’s position, the authors have proposed application of the hoisting winch drum’s drive and an auxiliary system. The auxiliary system enables independent moving of a selected point of the hoisting rope in two perpendicular planes. In this paper, two methods for determining the drive functions of the auxiliary system and the hoisting winch’s drum ensuring stabilization of an offshore crane’s load are presented. Both methods are based on a simplified model of a crane and allow compensation for a pseudo-harmonic base motion. In order to take into account the deviations of base motion from the assumed and avoid over simplifications, the second, more sophisticated model is developed. This model is proposed to be applied in closed-loop control systems with a PID controller. Results of sample numerical simulations are included that proved useful information about the developed methods and models for stabilization of an offshore crane’s load.

This paper describes the development and implementation of closed-loop control for oval stamp forming tooling using MATLAB®’s SIMULINK® and the dSPACE®CONTROLDESK®. A traditional PID controller was used for the blank holder pressure and an advanced controller utilizing fuzzy logic combining a linear quadratic gauss controller and a bang–bang controller was used to control draw bead position. The draw beads were used to control local forces near the draw beads. The blank holder pressures were used to control both wrinkling and local forces during forming. It was shown that a complex, advanced controller could be modeled using MATLAB’s SIMULINK and implemented in DSPACE CONTROLDESK. The resulting control systems for blank holder pressures and draw beads were used to control simultaneously local punch forces and wrinkling during the forming operation thereby resulting in a complex control strategy that could be used to improve the robustness of the stamp forming processes.

The draw beads were used to control local forces near the draw beads. The blank holder pressures were used to control both wrinkling and local forces during forces.

Tangible Programming

Programming control in industrial design is by its nature expert upon an example being Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Such programmes are unsuitable for children or novices as they cannot understand how to use the programme. This research seeks to present tangible programming for a basic control system in new frameworks in engineering education for children. Such programmes could be for use in kindergartens, primary schools or general teaching where knowledge about basic control is required. Normally open-loop and closed-loop control system programming is taught at university and college level. This may be late as far as acquiring knowledge of basic control systems is concerned. Using tangible programming without a computer but instructions and interface, relay and motor could result in children in kindergartens and primary schools being able to programme open-looped control systems which mix chemicals or closed-loop control systems which control conveyor belts. However, the children would not be able to undertake programming using programmable control in a similar scenario.
