Abstract: In this paper, an alternative approach was developed for the form-finding of cable-membrane structures. The prestress of a triangular finite element was firstly equivalent to the axial force densities and uniform vertical ...

Abstract: A pretension design method based on the projection principle is proposed for space deployable mesh reflector antennas. First, the equilibrium tension of the plane cable net structure is obtained by a force equilibrium ...

Abstract: The rapid development of the shipping industry and the increasingly complex maritime traffic pose potential risks, potentially leading to serious accidents and substantial economic losses. Identifying seafarer fatigue is ...
