Transmission towers are used widely for transmitting electric power as there is a huge
requirement of electricity consumption in every developing country. Structural design of steel …

The fragility model of transmission towers is one of the key elements for the hurricane risk
and resilience assessment of regional power utility infrastructure. The current methods for …

The objective of this paper is to develop a numerical model for simulating ultimate behavior
of lattice steel tower structures. We present the elastoplastic large deformation analysis of a …

Equitable internet coverage has emerged as a key global priority, which is essential for
promoting inclusive and sustainable development. The Indonesian government aims to …

The results from a 1: 50 scale aeroelastic model of a self-supported steel lattice tower
subjected to simulated hurricane winds are presented. The lattice tower considered is a …

Towers or tower-line systems within a power network can experience damages under rare
earthquakes or strong winds. The estimation of the failure probability of a tower-line system …

Wind tunnel tests on two cross-arm models of a 500 kV tubular-angle steel transmission
tower at three mean wind speeds were carried out. The drag coefficients in wind directional …

The design of transmission lines is based on the Load and Resistance Factor Design
approach, considering that their collapse limit state is governed by climatic actions (wind …

In this paper, nonlinear static pushover analyses were carried out to assess the capacity and
collapse mechanism of two existing transmission towers under wind loading. Different load …

Lattice towers are extensively built in Europe and worldwide to serve telecommunication or
power transmission purposes. Their members are usually made of equal leg angle profiles …
