Research into the dynamic behaviour of structures is present in mechanical and civil engineering. Structures of various purposes are exposed to variable influences. These influences can be common [1], which are variable only in time, and influences of moving loads, which are variable in time and space [2] and [3]. The action of these influences on structures is reflected in the occurrence of dynamic displacements, velocities, and accelerations of the structure. In mechanical engineering, this problem is present, above all, in the field of crane engineering. One of the representatives of crane machines, which are the subject of this paper, is the portal-rotating crane. These are crane machines with a boom that is connected to the portal and that has the possibility of a 360° rotation. These cranes are interesting for dynamic analysis due to their high carrying capacities and the fact that they have a small base in proportion to their height. In portal-rotating cranes, there are influences that are variable in time. Load swing contributes significantly to the dynamic loading of cranes. The importance of the problem of load swing is considered and confirmed in papers [1] and [4]. Furthermore, the importance of this problem is defined in standards [5]. The first papers considered planar dynamic models, and later papers published specifically in
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
