A cable-stiffened cylindrical single-layer latticed shell that is reinforced by cable-stiffened system has superior stability behaviour compared with the ordinary cylindrical latticed shell. The layouts of cable-stiffened system are flexible in this structural system, and different layouts contribute different stiffness to the structure. However, the existed few research primarily focused on the simplest type of cable layouts, in which the grids of the latticed shell are diagonally stiffened by prestressed cables in-plane. This current work examines the stability behaviour of the cable-stiffened cylindrical latticed shells with two different types of cable layouts using nonlinear finite element analysis. A parametric study on the effect of cross-sectional of the cables, pretension in cables, joint stiffness, initial imperfections, load distributions and boundary conditions is presented. The findings are useful for the reference of the designer in using this type of structural system.

Researches on spherical shell which is most usually applied have been completed by many investigators already and generalized numerical formula was derived. But the existent researches are limited to those on spherical shell with isotropic or orthotropic roof stiffness, periodic distribution of roof stiffness that can be caused by spherical and latticed roof system is not considered. Therefore, the object of this study is to develop a structural analysis program to analyze spherical shells that have periodicity of roof stiffness distribution caused by latticed roof of large space structure, grasp buckling characteristics and behavior of structure.

The effect of 5 typical rise ratio(h/a=2/9, 5/18, l/3, l/2, 2/3) on the buckling characteristics of single-layer latticed domes with rectangular network under the external pressure are the theoretically studied on the basis of geometically nonlinear FEM and shell analogy method. The loading conditions are 4 types, that is, 1) the uniform pressure loading 2)the uniform snow loading 3) the half - sided asymmetric pressure loading 4) the half - sided asymmetric snow loading.

The form-resistant Systems like a dome and shell are used more widely than post-beam structure system in large space structure. Single layer latticed dome system, one of the form-resistant system, has great merits in manufacturing and constructing but the failure mechanism is not clarified yet. The purpose of this paper is to find out the buckling characteristics of single-layer latticed domes with square network by using the experimental method. Major test parameters are the stiffness of lattice member and space of square lattice. The specimens are applied uniform loading of snow type.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the buckling characteristics of rigidly-jointed single-layer latticed domes with square network by using the experimental and the theoretical techniques in order to develop a reasonable method of theoretical analysis for these domes. Two methods of theoretical analysis are applied; one is based on the Yamada's method of shell analogy and the other is based on the frame analysis method using the finite element method. The effects of the nonuniformity of rigidity-distribution in the circumferential direction and the rigidity of the covering material on both the prebuckling and the buckling characteristics are examined. The results indicate that these effects should be considered reasonably in the theoretical analyses.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of eigen modes by modal analysis and the application of approximate eigen modes for continuum. This study proposes the appropriate selection technique of eigen modes by modal analysis and the method for the reasonable survey of post-buckling path. And the buckling characteristics of a latticed dome is studied by the application of these approximate eigen modes which have sufficient accuracy and praticallity for response analysis in symmetric and anti-symmetric state of continuous shell. To prove the effectiveness of eigen modes and application of approximate eigen modes for continuum, these results are compared with those of direct method.
