Stability of reticulated domes under multiple static and dynamic loads

The primary purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the stability of reticulated domes under multiple static and dynamic loads. Two elastic geometrically nonlinear structural models of a reticulated dome with 21 and 39 degrees of freedom are considered. The nonlinear response of the system t...
