Abstract: Most active structures involve direct control of single parameters when there is a closed form relationship between the response required and the control parameter. Building on a previous study of an adjustable structure, ...

Abstract: Structural analyses of tensegrity structures must account for geometrical nonlinearity. The dynamic relaxation method correctly models static behavior in most situations. However, the requirements for precision increase ...

Abstract: A tensegrity is a lightweight space structure consisting of compression members surrounded by a network of tension members. They can be easily dismantled and therefore provide innovative possibilities for reusable and ...
