Due to the advantages of light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance, aluminum
alloys have been widely used in large-span space structures, and the application form is …

Accidental cable failure may occur for complicated suspend-dome structures, resulting in the
dynamic impact effect on structures. This study presents simplified analysis methods for …

As large-span structures, reticulated shells are widely used in large-scale public building
and act as emergency shelters in the event of sudden disasters. However, spatial reticulated …

This paper presents a modified evaluation approach for the structural-capacity-reserve
(SCR) based on the static stability behavior of single-layer spherical lattice shells to achieve …

Regarding the effect of the initial geometric defect (IGD) on the static stability of single-layer
reticulated shells, its distribution pattern and magnitude are the main concerns to …

The rib-and-ring single-layer spherical mesh shell structure is widely used in the mesh shell
structure of LNG tank domes because of its simple installation, convenient construction and …
