Asymptotic Analysis of a Translating Cable Arch
نویسنده
چکیده
The stability of a translating cable which stands in the shape of an arch between two supports is investigated. Asymptotic solutions for free in-plane and out-of-plane cable vibrations are derived under the assumption of small arch height. Without translation speed, the cable arch collapses under compressional loading. As translation speed is increased, however, the cable arch becomes tensioned and stable. A previous experiment confirms this prediction. The asymptotic solutions derived here show that the in-plane and out-of-plane vibration modes are stabilized in fundamentally different manners.

Theoretical and Experimental Stability of Two Translating Cable Equilibria
Previous theoretical investigations of translating cables have been focused on the sagged cable equilibrium referred to here as the minimum cutenary. The minimum catenary is stable for finite translation speeds [ 1,2] and asymptotically approaches a buckling instability as the translation speed tends to infinity [2]. Experimental evidence presented in this paper validates this conclusion and th...
متن کاملStability Analysis and Robust PID Control of Cable Driven Robots Considering Elasticity in Cables
In this paper robust PID control of fully-constrained cable driven parallel manipulators with elastic cables is studied in detail. In dynamic analysis, it is assumed that the dominant dynamics of cable can be approximated by linear axial spring. To develop the idea of control for cable robots with elastic cables, a robust PID control for cable driven robots with ideal rigid cables is firstly de...

This paper investigates the effect of metallic sheaths on losses and temperature of medium voltage power cables. Two grounding methods of sheaths, including both ends bonding and single point bonding that causes different situations on cable ampacity, are considered. Electrical losses of cables that are main sources of heat are calculated in both conductor and metallic sheath of the cables. She...
