| Popis: | Cable structures are light-weight, expressive from an architectural point of view and allow covering large spans without intermediate supports. They are far superior to the conventional bearer systems of buildings and constructions. On the other hand, cables are very deformable and possess complex non-linear behavior under load. In spite of availability of special computer programs, designed for iteration analysis of cable systems, the problems of optimization require elaboration of analytical structural models. In the present paper, the behavior of flexible cables is analyzed by means of trigonometric series. This technique may be used for simulation of complex structures, comprising several tiers or flexible chords. It extends the scope of analytical approach on cables, influenced by substantially non-uniform loads. The present work also contributes to the analysis of flexible membrane systems, which are often simulated by a number of cables, arranged in mutual-perpendicular directions. |
