Cables are widely utilized as load-carrying members due to their excellent mechanical properties. However, the inherent damping of cables is usually extremely low, thereby causing undesired vibrations to occur frequently under various external excitations. This study investigates the utilization of rigid restraints with a built-in tuned mass damper...

A simple model to evaluate the effects of relative displacements between the ground anchors of a suspension bridge is proposed. An equation system is defined, which allows for the evaluation of the structural response under a general displacement set of the ground anchor points. Then, the most interesting and likely cases are analyzed in detail wit...

Large-span, post-tensioned (PT) beams play a crucial role in maximizing the benefits of post-tensioning techniques. Bonded and unbonded systems are prevalent, with the latter being more widespread in the United States. While bonded systems are advantageous for creating long spans when multiple tendons are grouped in ducts, limited studies in the li...

To calculate the tension in cables with different boundary conditions, the relationship between cables with fixed–fixed and hinged–hinged boundary conditions in terms of the frequency was determined according to frequency characteristic equations of cables with the two boundary conditions. In this way, a simple calculation formula for tension with ...

In recent years, due to the extensive application and inherent fire hazard of cable materials, the combustion characteristics of frequently used cables, including electrical cables, wires, optical fibers, and network cables have been studied based on ISO 5660 cone calorimetry. The fire hazard associated with these cables under different radiation i...
