Using support vector machine model to study of dynamic response of guyed tower subjected to earthquake loading

Guyed towers are important in telecommunication systems. So, it is important to protect them against natural events specially earthquake. In this paper, seismic behavior of guyed towers are studied. For that, some of guyed towers under earthquake forces are studied. The research is on the based of two kind offorces: wind and earthquake forces and tower interaction to these forces. Here, the effect of earthquake forces and tower response to seismic events are studied. At first, modal analysis are used in determination of towers vibration natural modes, then, under time- acceleration components of El-Centro earthquake,spectral analysis are performed. Analysis outputs are provided using ANSYS software and twoparameters including frequency and maximum lateral displacement. The results are used in comparison of two different calculation models: genetic programming and cellular automata.
