Evaluation of the Cable Force by Frequency Method for the Hybrid Boundary between the Ear Plate and the Anchor Plate

For the quick and accurate determination of the cable force under the hybrid boundary between the ear plate and the anchor plate, this paper proposes a method for identifying the boundary conditions and bending stiffness of the cables based on the frequency method. First, the influence of the parameters, namely, cable boundary conditions, bending stiffness, inclination angle, and linear density, on the cable force was analyzed. Next, the actual bending stiffness of the cable under the boundary conditions of the upper hinged support and the lower solid support and the solid support at both ends were determined, and the cable force in the two states was calculated. Finally, the hydraulic jack tension and the cable force in the two states were compared and analyzed to define the actual boundary conditions and bending stiffness of the cable. The results show that the boundary conditions, bending stiffness, and linear density of the cable considerably influence the cable force, whereas the inclination angle has a negligible effect on the cable force. The bending stiffness under the two boundary conditions of the cable were both 0.12Eimax, and the calculated value of the cable force under the solid support boundary condition at both ends was consistent with the value of the hydraulic jack tension.
