Abstract: Abstract Shallow cable nets may be coupled into multi-layer configurations that are stiffer and stronger than single-layer configurations. In a previous study, group theory was used to investigate double-layer cable nets of D4h symmetry by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.istruc.2017.03.004
Abstract: Abstract The nonlinear dynamic behavior of saddle-form cable nets subjected to wind actions is studied. The pressure coefficients are obtained by adjusting the recommendations of Eurocode 1 regarding vaulted and duopitch roofs. Artificial wind velocity… read more here.
