Multibody dynamic analysis of a heavy load suspended by a floating crane with constraint-based wire rope

We applied the DEL equation to a mass-spring system with the large spring coefficient. And we tested a spring pendulum modeled by a constraint-based wire rope. Despite the large spring coefficient, the DEL equation with the constraint-based wire rope shows relatively stable motion. We tested the automatic formulation by three-dimensional multiple pendulums. Finally, we simulated a floating crane and a heavy load connected by constraint-based wire rope, based on set of regular waves with different wave heights, directions and periods.
