Rigid-Flexible Coupling Dynamics Analysis of Boom-Hoisting System of Wind Power Crane

Based on the slenderness of wind power crane boom and the complexity of working environment, a mathematical model of rigid-flexible coupling dynamics including wind load and vibration characteristic analysis is carried out for the boom-hoisting system. The equivalent spring-damping system, spatial pendulum system and elastic double-force rod are used to simulate the elastic vibration of boom, the swing of lifting weight and the elastic vibration of wire rope, respectively. The kinematic characteristics of each component are described using a hybrid coordinate system. Simulation of wind loads through an instantaneous wind model consisting of the average and pulsating wind. Derivation of dynamic model for wind power crane under wind load based on the Lagrange equation. Taking a certain type of wind power crane as the research object, based on the derived mathematical model and ADAMS model, the response curves of boom and lifting weight are solved in MATLAB and ADAMS respectively for the rotary working condition, to verify the rationality and accuracy of the mathematical model and to obtain the influence of wind load on the swing angle of lifting weight. The analysis results provide a certain theoretical basis for crane structure design, control system design and wind turbine hoisting.
