Lattice Transmission towers are vital components of overhead transmission lines which play
an important role in the operation of electrical power systems. Accurate prediction of the …

During service, transmission lines (TLs) will be subjected to unbalanced longitudinal loads
due to events such as conductor breakage, insulator failure, and sudden ice shedding …

Ignorance of the influences of bolt slippage effects on transmission towers will lead to the
underestimation of the deformations of the transmission towers. Therefore, the responses of …

Transmission towers play an important role in transmitting electricity in a power grid safely
and reliably. In traditional design practice, the second-order P-Δ (frame side sway) and P-δ …

The structural design of self-supporting transmission line towers (TLTs) typically employs
first-order elastic analysis to streamline practical engineering. Accordingly, due to their serial …

Reliability assessment of transmission line towers (TLTs) becomes particularly important in
the context of the growing demand for increasing the energy transport capacity of existing …

Post-elastic capacity of transmission tower is critical for the realistic assessment of tower
vulnerability under the extreme loading conditions. This paper first presented a series of …

Steel lattice transmission towers are constructed through the bolted assembly of various
sizes of angle steel members and joint slip is inevitable; ignorance of this slip, which is the …

Joint-slippage models are key parameters in structural deflection prediction of angle steel
transmission towers. Depended by number of bolts, bolt diameter, bolt arrangement, cross …

Steel lattice transmission towers and communication towers are vital infrastructure
components of power grid and telecommunication systems, respectively. They are usually …
