The Study of Super Element Cable

Article Preview

Abstract:

A parametric super element model for cable passing through multiple pulleys is presented in this study for the static analysis of structures.Crossing cable, with varying wind velocity, have shown the expression for in-plane cable vibrations to give good estimates of the actual aerodynamic damping.The load can be adjusted from 20% to 100% of the power supplied and the number of branches connected can be altered. The discretization is carried out by a standard approach and the resulting model is presented adopting a compact vectorial formalism enabling the formulation of expressions. Generation of closely spaced modes due to the addition of the secondary cable plays an important role on its controlling effects on the main cable response through this type of nonlinear interaction.
