Dynamical Characteristics Research on Cable Dome

Article Preview

Abstract:

The vibration frequency and vibration mode of a Geiger dome are studied first in this paper. Then the influence of the prestress and the externalload to the frequency and the way to change the vibration modes are discussed. At last, the response to the earthquake and the comparison of the aseismatic behavior between before and after adding the stability cables are studied. The results of the paper are believed to provide a meaning help in the preliminary design of cable domes.
