Pretension Optimization Method for Complex Cablenet System

Abstract:

Based on balance matrix analysis method and considered the evenness of pretension distribution as objective function, a pretension optimization method is proposed for complex cablenet system of large span structure. In this method, the whole cablenet system is firstly divided into several groups according to its axial symmetry to simplify its balance matrix, and then balance matrix analysis method is used to analyze balance matrix of grouped cablenet system. Next, the corresponding optimum mathematic model for grouped cablenet system can be established with pretension solutions coefficients as design variables and evenness of pretension distribution as objective function. Finally, generalized reduced gradient algorithm is used to solve the optimum mathematic model of an example, and the result is satisfactory.
