Abstract EN
Dynamic behaviour of cable networks is highly dependent on the installation location, stiffness, and damping of cross-ties.
Thus, these are the important design parameters for a cable network.
While the effects of the former two on the network response have been investigated to some extent in the past, the impact of cross-tie damping has rarely been addressed.
To comprehend our knowledge of mechanics associated with cable networks, in the current study, an analytical model of a cable network will be proposed by taking into account both cross-tie stiffness and damping.
In addition, the damping property of main cables in the network will also be considered in the formulation.
This would allow exploring not only the effectiveness of a cross-tie design on enhancing the in-plane stiffness of a constituted cable network, but also its energy dissipation capacity.
The proposed analytical model will be applied to networks with different configurations.
The influence of cross-tie stiffness and damping on the modal response of various types of networks will be investigated by using the corresponding undamped rigid cross-tie network as a reference base.
Results will provide valuable information on the selection of cross-tie properties to achieve more effective cable vibration control.
