A Novel Shape Finding Method for the Main Cable of Suspension Bridge Using Nonlinear Finite Element Approach
The determination of the final cable shape under the self-weight of the suspension bridge enables its safe construction and operation. Most existing studies solve the cable shape segment-by-segment in the Lagrangian coordinate system. This paper develops a novel shape finding method for the main cab...
