Summary
In this paper we analyze the non linear behaviour of elastic cables acted upon by dead load and tensile forces. Such cables are often employed in long-span cable-stayed bridges. We also study the stay‘s stiffening obtained by a counterstays system and used to reduce the overall defor-mability of such bridges. The analysis is made by using two non linear finite element models here proposed and suitable to grasp the geometric nonlinearity of these structures.
