This paper proposes an extended design concept and mechanical description for cable-net structures, including 10 states and 15 procedures which are defined according to their physical nature and analytical capabilities. In the pre-stress release analysis, an iterative computational method is developed for the inverse evaluation from the equilibrium state to the zero-stress state...
) ORCID: Jin-yu ZHOU The indeterminacy evaluation is an effective method for system identification; it can predict the mechanical behaviors of flexible structures in the primary design. However, the
