Abstract: The folding behavior of a prismatic mast based on Kresling origami pattern is studied in this paper. The mast consists of identical triangles with cyclic symmetry. Bar stresses and necessary external nodal loads of the ...

Abstract: The basic concept of a deployable pyramidal shelter structure based on origami is introduced. Various radially foldable systems are composed by leaf units in leaf-in and leaf-out patterns. Then the geometry and motion of ...

Abstract: The deployment of a cylinder based on origami with Kresling pattern, whose basic mechanisms are formed by the buckling of a thin cylindrical shell under torsional loading, is studied in this paper. The model consists of ...

Abstract: Waste concrete recycled powder (WCRP) occupies up to 30% of crushed old concrete and is hard to be reutilized due to its high porosity and low cementitious reactivity. Traditionally, the WCRP is reused as cement substitution ...
