Abstract

The wind induced responses of transmission tower line system are studied by finite element method. Firstly, a slip model considering eccentricity and bolt joint slippage in diagonal bracings, tower legs and tower head is built by ANSYS. The slip model has a more accurate result compared with conventional models. Secondly, the finite element models of tower line systems are established and the wind speed time histories are simulated using MATLAB. Finally, the wind induced responses of different tower line systems are studied. The results of a single tower and the tower line systems are compared to study the effects of tower-line coupling effects and bolt slippage on wind induced responses of transmission tower line systems.
