Command shaping control of a crane system

Cranes are widely used for transportation of heavy material in factories, warehouse, shipping yards, building construction and nuclear facilities. There are 3 major types of crane system: gantry (overhead) crane, rotary (tower) crane and boom crane. This project will concentrate in controlling of ga...
