Design Optimisation of a Cable–Strut Tensile Structure According to the Importance of Elements

In this study, the design of a flexible cable–strut tensile structure was optimised according to the importance of elements to achieve high structural robustness. First, the importance coefficients of elements were determined by comparing their structural prefailure and postfailure strain energy. Mo...
