Out-of-Plane Stability Analysis of Crane Jib with Auxiliary Bracing

Article Preview

Abstract:

The analysis model is built to investigate the out-of-plane stability of crane jib with auxiliary bracing. Considering the second-order effect, the analytical expression of the out-of-plane buckling characteristic equation for the crane jib with auxiliary bracing is obtained by establishing the bending deflection differential equation of jib under the instability critical state with the method of differential equation. The equilibrium equation of the cable converging point in the lateral direction is introduced to solve the differential equation besides the boundary conditions and deformation compatibility equations. With the characteristic equation, the critical compression or the critical lifting load can be easily obtained. The characteristic equation is analytically expressed and the analytical results obtained agree very well with the finite element method (FEM) results. The validity of the characteristic equation is verified.
