Abstract

<p>This paper proposes a simple method to obtain equilibrium membrane forms under the self-weight. The horizontal component of the membrane forces determined by the finite element analysis of an initial shell form is given as the known membrane stress distribution in the form-finding analysis. The form of the hanging membrane can be obtained by modifying the nodal z coordinates to be in equilibrium for the self-weight while maintaining the horizontal membrane stress distribution. Several numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.</p>
