Topological design of compression structures with prestressing tendons Moskaleva, Anastasiia Fernández Ruiz, Manuel Alejandro Gil Martín, Luisa María Hernández Montes, Enrique Compression structures Form-finding Prestressing tendons Force Density Method Rib vault. Compression structures with prestressing tendons are a new type of structures which combines a compression structure with a discrete number of tension members treated as ties. They are an intermediate case between tension-only structures and compression-only structures. As tension and compression members exist, the force density matrix can be singular or ill-conditioned. Consequently, the solution of the equilibrium equation is not as simple as in the case of tension-only and compression-only structures. In this catalogue, nine compression structures with prestressing tendons are presented to show the potential of this new type of structures 2018-10-24T10:43:13Z 2018-10-24T10:43:13Z 2018 info:eu-repo/semantics/book http://hdl.handle.net/10481/53540 eng http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Atribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 España
