  • Nonlinear planar modeling of massive taut strings travelled by a force-driven point-mass

    Publication

    - NONLINEAR DYNAMICS - Year 2019

    The planar response of horizontal massive taut strings, travelled by a heavy point-mass, either driven by an assigned force, or moving with an assigned law, is studied. A kinematically exact model is derived for the free boundary problem via a variational approach, accounting for the singularity in the slope of the deflected string. Reactive forces exchanged between the point-mass and the string are taken into account via Lagrange...
