In order to have a good understanding of the failure mechanism of single-layer saddle-curve reticulated shells under earthquake motion, dynamic failure mode of single-layer saddlecurve reticulated shells under earthquake ...
FE models of both the single-layer Kiewitt-8 reticulated domes with a span of 60m and the
cylindrical impactor were developed incorporating ANSYS/LS-DYNA. Afterward,
fourteen groups impact are simulated by changing the ...
Due to a high ratio of load carrying capacity to self weight, membrane is widely
used in various applications such as gossamer space structures One major design issue that is inherent to membrane structures is the formation ...
