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.

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.

Studies on the static stability and the ultimate bearing capacity of vierendeel latticed shells have been carried out. The buckling modal and the whole course of instability are shown using the Finite Element Method. The ultimate bearing capacity is compared with that of the single-layer latticed shell structure. The results show that the ultimate bearing capacity of the vierendeel latticed shells is 2.87 times more than that of the single-layer lattice shell in the condition of consuming the same steel. The vierendeel latticed shell structure not only has the advantages of concision and transparency like the single layer latticed shell structure, but also has the stability and carrying capacity like double-layer latticed shell structure.

An investigation on the stability of heated panels in supersonic airflow is performed. The nonlinear aeroelastic model for a two-dimensional panel is established using Galerkin method and the thermal effect on the panel stiffness is also considered. The quasi-steady piston theory is employed to calculate the aerodynamic load on the panel. The static and dynamic stabilities for flat panels are studied using Lyapunov indirect method and the stability boundary curve is obtained. The static deformation of a post-buckled panel is then calculated and the local stability of the post-buckling equilibrium is analyzed. The limit cycle oscillation of the post-buckled panel is simulated in time domain. The results show that a two-mode model is suitable for panel static stability analysis and static deformation calculation; but more than four modes are required for dynamic stability analysis. The effects of temperature elevation and dimensionless parameters related to panel length/thickness ratio, material density and Mach number on the stability of heated panel are studied. It is found that panel flutter may occur at relatively low aerodynamic pressure when several stable equilibria exist for the aeroelastic system of heated panel.

. A method of stability analysis for combined ship (oil carrier/platform ship type) at the stage of design study is presented. It should be noted that not all of ship’s main seaworthiness and operational characteristics are the result of a simple addition of the characteristics of an oil carrier and a platform ship. Their mutual influence takes place, which should be taken into account when analysing the stability in the multivariant optimization problems of internal and external design of such ships. This leads to the requirement to adjust the known methods of stability analysis at the initial stages of ship design, which was the purpose of the present work and its originality. Taking into account the multivariance of the task and the hull design type, the stability assessment will be carried out through the analysis of the metacentric height extreme value on the assumption that the requirements of Russian River Register for admissible heeling angle at static wind effect are met. In order to account for nonlinearity of static stability curve when inclining up to the angles of deck immersion into water and emergence of bilge, it is suggested to apply an approximate method of metacentric radius determination. The proposed method of combined ship stability assessment is recommended to apply at the stage of justification and analysis of ship’s key elements as a limitation in the problems of mathematical modeling of optimization of such type of ships. The method allows to exclude from further consideration at the design study stage the possible options that do not meet the requirements of seaworthiness.

This paper deals with the walking stability analysis of a multi-legged crablike robot over slope using normalized energy stability margin (NESM) method in order to develop a common stabilization description method and achieve robust locomotion for the robot over rough terrains. The robot is simplified with its static stability being described by NESM. The mathematical model of static stability margin is built so as to carry out the simulation of walking stability over slope for the crablike robot that walks in double tetrapod gait. As a consequence, the relationship between stability margin and the height of the robots centroid, as well as its inclination relative to the ground is calculated by the stability criterion. The success and performance of the stability criterion proposed is verified through MATLAB simulation and real-world experiments using multi-legged crablike robot.

In the interest of an understanding to the imperfection stability behavior, a model of single layer spherical lattice shell was designed. The size and the pattern of initial imperfections were entirely measured. Automatic harmony loading control system and data acquisition system was used. The experiment plan, method and results have provided reference significance for the study on the stability of spatial lattice shell. The experimental results and the results of measured imperfections method were compared and analysed in detail. It is verified that measured imperfections method can accurately take into account of the effect of initial imperfections and it can be used for the supplementary checking computations of some important finished structures.

A foot path planning algorithm is presented for a robot with six limbs symmetrically located on the faces of its hexagonal body, enabling it to walk at a constant height with an alternating tripod gait. The symmetry results in near omni-directional locomotion capability, so the algorithm is formulated for walking in any direction and at any height. The approach is to determine the maximum length foot path through each limb’s workspace and then modify those foot paths based upon static stability analysis. The stability analysis is conducted in two phases to ensure stability without excessively reducing step length. Compared to an optimization approach, the algorithm yields foot paths within 9.1% of the maximal foot paths for all directions and heights. Unlike the optimization approach, the developed algorithm is computationally efficient enough to be implemented in realtime.

The static stability capacity is the main index to measure the whole mechanical performance of single-layer latticed shells. Three single-layer cylindrical latticed shells with different height to span ratio were modeled, and their seismic damage were assessed by the degradation of static stability capacity incurred by earthquakes. Two different static load patterns were considered: dead load and the combination of dead load and half span live load. The results show that the damage assessment method is applicable to single-layer cylindrical latticed shells, and the static load patterns have no big influence on the damage assessment of the single-layer cylindrical latticed shells.

The stability analysis of axisymmetrical equilibrium states of geometrically nonlinear, orthotropic, circular plates that are deformed by multiparameter loading, including thermal influence, is presented. The dynamic method (method of small vibrations) is used to accomplish this purpose. The behavior of the plate in different cases is revealed. In particular, it is shown that two different types of snapping processes can occur. The values of frequencies of small eigenvibrations from various cases have been calculated. These investigations are realized by numerical and qualitative methods. Here only the numerical results are presented.
