The concept of cable-strut is extended from that of tensegrity. The broad interpretation of cable-strut systems includes tensegrity systems, RP (Reciprocal Prism) and CP (Crystal-cell Pyramid) system, etc. Its narrow interpretation excludes tensegrity systems. Thus this paper is divided into two par

A numerical method is presented for form-finding of cable-strut structures. The topology and the types of members are the only information that is required in this form-finding process. Dummy members are used to transform the cable-strut structure with supports into self-stressed system without supp
The formulation derived in Part I of this paper is applied to investigate nonlinear vibration behavior of inclined sag cables with and without oil dampers in long-span cable-stayed bridges. The inclined sag cables used in computation are also tested in the laboratory with scaled cables and oil dampe
This paper presents a formulation for determining the non-linear dynamic response of sag cables equipped with discrete oil dampers and subject to harmonic loading. The state-space method is "rst employed to convert the second order non-linear partial di!erential equations of motion of the system to
The present paper describes an investigation of the e!ect of dynamic cable interaction with the deck and towers in the seismic response of a cable-stayed bridge. This study involved shaking table tests performed on a physical model of Jindo bridge, in order to validate two alternative numerical mode
