Abstract In actual industrial processes, numerous cantilever structures with free ends carry heavy loads weighing several tons. For such structures, fixed supports are often added at the load end, forming a double-supported structure to reduce large forces and moments imposed on by load. However, when end of undergoes deflection due changes in operating conditions, significant stress is generated structure, severely affecting its mechanical lifespan safety. A follow-up support scheme needs...
