A novel dynamic modeling approach is developed that explicitly incorporates the coupled hook-container dynamics and nonlinear liquid sloshing effects, providing a realistic representation of the flexible coupling and energy exchange mechanisms inherent in practical crane operations. To address the challenges of vibration suppression and precise positioning under harsh operating conditions, a Multi-Objective Constrained Linear Matrix Inequality-Integrated Sliding Surface Controller (MO-Constrained LMI-ISSC) is proposed. The controller systematically integrates <em>H</em><sub>∞</sub> disturbance attenuation, decay rate constraints for transient regulation, and explicit input-output constraints within a unified sliding mode control framework, ensuring robust performance while satisfying physical and safety requirements. Furthermore, an active fault-tolerant control scheme is established by integrating a Full-Order Fault Estimation Observer (FFEO) designed using frequency-domain-dependent <em>H</em><sub>∞</sub> performance criteria based on the generalized Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov (KYP) lemma. This observer-based approach enables simultaneous actuator fault reconstruction and disturbance attenuation with reduced conservatism compared to conventional full-band designs.

An ultra-local model of the system speed loop is first constructed. Then, a model-free finite-time sliding-mode controller (MFFTSMC) is designed. Moreover, a HCESO is developed to decompose the lumped disturbance into main and residual components without requiring complex computations, then estimates them separately using observers with distinct characteristics. Compared to the existing single-observer disturbance rejection architectures, this design preserves algorithmic simplicity while reducing the estimation burden on individual observers. By estimating and compensating for residual disturbances, it significantly enhances the accuracy of lumped disturbance estimation. This improves the system’s robustness and control accuracy under severe operating conditions.
