Abstract: |
This paper considers a project of a new high voltage line for which the insulator chain supporting the high voltage cables is designed to remind the sail of a boat changing shape as the wind blows. Such a design with moving parts in the structure reveals new engineering challenges on how to ensure structural integrity while respecting architectural wishes. This paper presents the main structural issues of this design and how modern calculation methods allow to tackle them and prevent them. |
