Abstract :
Estimation formulas for wind force coefficients for self-supporting (SS) optical fiber cable are derived. Using these formulas, a procedure for evaluating the critical wind velocity that triggers galloping oscillation is provided. An SS cable with projections is designed to increase the critical wind velocity
