Abstract :
Fuzzy logic has been applied widely in various closed-loop control systems. In the case of a hydraulic mobile crane, the operator often has many mechanical manual valve lever arms to handle simultaneously. In this paper, it is shown how by using a fuzzy logic controller, the operator´s task of controlling independent booms can be reduced using an electrically operated joystick
