29 Jun 101: Mast Assembly
Non-Linear Finite Element Analysis of Mast assembly, evaluating displacements of antenna and guy wire forces at given wind speeds, with the wind acting in different directions across multiple load cases. The maximum deflections of the assembly were reported, as well as the allowable loads for the guy wires constraining the mast. No mast buckling was also reported during the analysis, up to twice the design load.
