Abstract

In the design of a large span space frame, the first problem to be solved is the problem of stability, the buckling problem, especially for a single layer space frame. For a space frame with a certain configuration, the buckling mode and buckling-load parameter are very sensitive to its original shape (the nodal coordinates of the structure). By adopting nonlinear programming with geometrical nonlinear analysis, the present paper promote a method to find the optimum shape of a space frame with maximum buckling load. A single layer space frame is taken as a numerical example, and the analysis shows that the buckling load parameter increases 18.4%.
