Cable structures — ranging from long‐span bridges and aerial tramways to tensioned membrane roofs and offshore mooring lines — exhibit rich dynamic behaviour driven by inherent geometric nonlinearity ...
Systems of rigid rods acquire rigidity via the addition of random additional rods and cables, as captured via a graph theory. The research team's main object of study, shown here, is structures that ...
A new theory allows researchers to create easy-to-solve mathematical models using cables, a previously challenging mathematical problem.
