Cables are important components of cable-supported bridges and the measurement of
cable vibration is very useful for the condition assessment of bridges. The recently …

This paper develops a method for precisely determining the tension of an inclined cable with
unknown boundary conditions. First, the nonlinear motion equation of an inclined cable is …

The identification of cable forces plays an important role in the construction, vibration control,
and health monitoring of cable structures. In practice, cable vibrations are mainly affected by …

The presence of unknown complex boundary conditions usually imposes difficulties in
estimating the cable forces in cable-stayed bridges when using conventional model-based …

In this work, we study the influences of environmental temperature variation on the static and
dynamic behaviours of cables, and we develop a very accurate method for identifying the …

To obtain cable force quickly and accurately, and to develop a novel method for the
construction of a large number of cable structures and models, this paper proposed a novel …

Cables are the primary elements of cable-supported structure bridges, and cable force is an
important index to evaluate the safety and integrity of bridges. The approach of cable tension …

The measurement of tensile forces inside suspenders plays an important role in safety
inspection and monitoring during construction and operation of large structural engineering …

Purpose For fixed or hinged single cables, the vibration equation is well developed.
However, the form of boundary constraints between fixed and hinged is used extensively for …

The accurate determination of cable tension is important to the monitoring of the condition of
a cable-stayed bridge. When applying a vibration-based formula to identify the tension of a …
