An Improved Model for Structural Analysis of Cable-stayed Bridges

In this study, an improved analysis model for the more efficient and accurate structural analysis of cable-stayed bridges is presented. In this model, beam elements, of which stability functions are stabilized by the use of Taylor's series expansions, are used to model space frame structures, and truss elements, of which equivalent elastic moduli are evaluated on the assumption that the deflected shape of a cable has a catenary function, are used to model cables. By using the proposed analysis model, nonlinear static analysis and natural vibration analysis of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional cable-stayed bridges are carried out and are compared with the analysis results reported by other researchers.
