Abstract: The formulation used by the most of studies on elastic torus are either Reissner’s mixed formulation or Novozhilov’s complex-form one; however, for vibration and some displacement boundary-related problem of torus, those ...

Abstract: Deployable structures are extensively used in engineering. A bistable panel structure, inspired by multistable origami, is proposed, capable of deployment and folding powered by air pressure. Prototypes were manufactured ...

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the interlayer slidable friction structures on softsubstrate as the hardcover booklikelaminatedplates with internal friction on the Winkler foundation. For a quasistatic problem, a detailed ...
