Tower Crane Load Swing Under Stochastic Wind Excitation

A 5.5 KB Excel file contains simulation results quantifying wind-induced load swing for tower cranes. The dataset models the coupling between stochastic wind, flexible tower jib vibration, and load motion. Yu Sun authored this research, last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Model load swing angles (maximum offset 1.82°) as a function of stochastic wind speed and direction.
• Analyze the correlation between radial and tangential swing angles under different wind directions.
• Quantify the error (exceeds 10%) in swing prediction caused by time-varying windward pressure distribution.
• Simulate the influence of tower jib wind-induced vibration on nonlinear swing dynamics.

Strengths

• Data quantifies specific physical effects, such as a 1.82° maximum swing offset and >10% error from windward pressure.
• Results derived from a two-way fluid-structure coupling simulation framework integrating multi-body dynamics and wind field models.

Limitations

• Very small dataset at 5.5 KB, indicating limited scope and likely few data points.
• Data is purely simulated, not validated with real-world physical measurements.
• Specific row count, column names, and sample data are unavailable for assessment.
