Abstract :
In this brief, a vibrational control law is designed and applied to an unstable and parametrically excited mechanical system, namely, a gantry crane. The control law cancels the parametric resonance by reshaping the stable regions. The parameters of the control law are tuned by using a graphic scheme based on the symbolic computation of the monodromy matrix. The control law is implemented experimentally in the laboratory model of a gantry crane, confirming the theoretical results.
