Cable structures — ranging from long‐span bridges and aerial tramways to tensioned membrane roofs and offshore mooring lines — exhibit rich dynamic behaviour driven by inherent geometric nonlinearity ...
Aiming at the difficulty of accurately modeling the friction slip effect in engineering calculations for multi-span continuous cable structures, it is proposed to develop a three-dimensional slip ...
Systems of rigid rods acquire rigidity via the addition of random additional rods and cables, as captured via a graph theory. The research team's main object of study, shown here, is structures that ...
