Tower Crane Wind Load and Swing Dynamics Experimental Data

598.6 KB of raw experimental data supports statistical analyses for figures in a PLOS ONE journal article. Author Yu Sun published the data in April 2026 to accompany research on wind-induced loads and nonlinear swing behavior in flexible tower cranes.

Use Cases

• Model nonlinear swing dynamics using measured windward pressure and load swing data.
• Analyze the load coupling mechanism by correlating tower jib wind measurements with swing behavior.
• Validate stochastic wind excitation models against experimental records for different wind directions.
• Train classifiers to predict unreliable swing states from body dynamic model parameters and wind data.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a peer-reviewed PLOS ONE publication (DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0342197).
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for clear reuse.

Limitations

• Dataset scope is limited to 598.6 KB, indicating a small experimental sample size.
• Specific row count, column names, and measurement variables are not described in the metadata.
