Radiant cable suspendome based on single-layer lattice shell is proposed in this paper whose cable-strut system is like that of Radiant Beam String Structure, the purpose of this paper is to do stability analysis of the structure.The linear buckling analysis of the hybrid structure and the single-layer lattice shell who has the same geometry parameters is carried out, we can preliminarily understand the stability of the hybrid structure. At the same time, nonlinear buckling analysis is carried out to study the stability of the hybrid structure under different rise-span ratios, different prestress level and half-span load. The results show that the introduction of prestressed cables greatly improve the structure's stability and reduce the structure sensitivity to original geometrical imperfection.

The Suspended Latticed Intersected Cylindrical Shell (SLICS) is a new structural system, composed by the single layer Latticed Intersected Cylindrical Shell (LICS) and the prestressed cable-strut system. Mechanical properties of this structure were investigated through nonlinear buckling analysis by the consistent imperfect buckling analysis method, compared with the single layer LICS. Structure parameters including prestress level, member section, length of bar, rise-span ratio, obliquity were analyzed. And the effect of material nonlinearity on the stability was studied. Results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of the SLICS is improved as the introduction of prestress. However the prestress level has a limited impact on the ultimate bearing capacity. And the material nonlinear is very important to the stability of the SLICS.

In the present paper, the effect of imperfection on the elastic buckling load and mode shapes of externally-loaded single layer reticulated domes is investigated. The types of buckling concerned here are the general buckling, the local (dimple) buckling and the buckling of a member. As to the geometric parameter of a dome, the slenderness factor S is adopted which represents the openness and slenderness of the dome. The maximum value of the imperfection is assumed to be the normal random variable. The buckling loads are computed by the linear and the nonlinear buckling analysis using the finite element method. The statistical values are calculated by the three-points estimates method. The main points of interest are the influence of the shape and the extent of an imperfection on the buckling load.

Taking the new type hybrid structure of suspendome as the analytical object, its stability performance is studied in detail. Through the method of nonlinear buckling analysis, the influences of different parameters on the stability are systematically analyzed i.e. rise-span ratio, plane shape factor, prestress and length of strut. The results show that rise-span ratio, plane shape factor and length of strut have great effects on the structural stability while prestress has small effect.

This single-layer spherical reticulated shell has the advantages of reasonable stress,beautiful appearance ,fast construction,is widely applied in practical engineering. Through the static stability analysis of three kinds of single-layer spherical lattice shell structure using ansys, we get them in the uniform deformation under static load, the modal, buckling load. The results show that: The Kiewitt latticed shells displacement is small, structure is stable, better than SchwedLer and lianfang.

Single-layer special-shaped folded-plane latticed shell had been applied in Shenyang culture and art center. In order to analysis its static stability, explore the form of buckling modes and find out its critical load factor, this paper analysis the optimized structure with MIDAS Gen. Eigenvalue buckling analysis and nonlinear buckling analysis showed that the in-plane stiffness of the structure is very large, and the out-plane stiffness is small, the upside structure is prone to instability. The critical load factor for this structure is 10.32, the structural overall stability is fine according to the code. This structures is sensitive to the initial geometric imperfections which could lower structural stability of the system.

Densely arranged underground steel tube system (DAUSTS) is a new kind of structure which can be usually used in constructing spacious underground structures such as metro stations. During the construction, the steel tube is horizontally forced into soil by jacks through a vertical well. The tube may generate local buckling phenomena under the compression force if the parameter of the tube and soil meet the buckling condition. In the paper, the soil perturbation mode and the deformation of the tube before local buckling are both analyzed, considering the possibly concerned buckling failure modes in practical engineering, the confine effect of the soil and interaction between the tubes. A nonlinear buckling analysis on tube-wall of the steel tube located in the most unfavorable place is developed by the arc-length method of the finite element method (FEM), considering the effect of the large deformation. The results of the numerical simulation matches very well to the real application and the key results of the analysis can be used as an estimation principle for the stability of the tube.
