However, existing form-finding methods primarily rely on iterative calculations that treat loads as fixed known conditions. These methods are inefficient and fail to accurately control shape results. In this study, we propose a form-finding method that analyzes the load response of models under different sag and stress levels, taking into account the construction process. To analyze the system, a structural finite element model was established in ANSYS, and geometric nonlinear analysis was conducted using the Newton-Raphson method. The form-finding analysis results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves precise control of shape, with a maximum shape error ranging from 0.33% to 0.98%. Furthermore, the relationships between loads and tension forces are influenced by the deformed shape of the structures, exhibiting significant geometric nonlinear characteristics. Meanwhile, the load response analysis reveals that the stress level of the self-equilibrium state in the transversely stiffened suspended cable system is primarily governed by strength criteria, while shape is predominantly controlled by stiffness criteria. Importantly, by simulating the initial tensioning process as an initial condition, this method solves for a counterweight that satisfies the requirements and achieves a self-equilibrium state with the desired shape. The shape of the self-equilibrium state is precisely controlled by simulating the construction process. Overall, this work presents a new method for analyzing the form-finding process of large-span transversely stiffened suspended cable system, considering the construction process which was often overlooked in previous studies.展开更多

文摘为了提高辨识稳定图中真实模态的准确性与自动化程度,首先,从稳定点定义方式的角度论述了聚类算法效果欠佳的原因,并采用异阶系统非等权重的定义方式输出稳定点;其次,基于数据挖掘思想,采用改进的辨识聚类结构的有序点(ordering points to identify the clustering structure,简称OPTICS)算法自动清洗稳定点集,通过遍历性搜索的方式确定输入参数;然后,提出结合度矩阵去噪的自适应局部密度谱聚类(local density adaptive spectral clustering,简称SC-DA)算法分析稳定点集,并以簇中值作为模态参数的代表值,实现模态参数的自动化识别;最后,将含有密集模态的外滩大桥作为识别对象进行试验验证。试验结果表明:所提出方法具有较高的精度,与频域分解(frequency domain decomposition,简称FDD)法的频率结果最大相差仅为0.012 3 Hz,且在线识别的准确率达到82.86%,显著高于基于层次聚类的自动识别方法,实现了无人工干预下模态参数的自动、准确识别,具有一定的工程应用前景。
