Form-Finding and Evaluation of Spherical Tensegrity Toward Applying in Locomotive Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A tensegrity-based robot is a locomotive robot that operates on the principle of tensegrity, allowing it to change its shape by adjusting its internal prestress. Tensegrity-based robots can be categorized into different ...
Self-Equilibrium, Mechanism Stiffness, and Self-Stress Design of General Tensegrity With Rigid Bodies or Supports: A Unified Analysis Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of general tensegrity systems that incorporate rigid bodies beyond axially loaded members has garnered increasing attention in practical applications. Recent preliminary studies have been conducted on the analysis ...
Topology Optimization of Tensegrity Structures Considering Buckling Constraints
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a general approach for topology optimization of tensegrity structures. The optimization problem is formulated in the framework of a mixed-integer linear programming. Compared with previous approaches, ...
Annual Runoff is Highly Linked to Precipitation Extremes in Karst Catchments of Southwest China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractKarst landforms cover 7%?12% of the Earth?s continental area and provide water resources for 25% of the global population. Climate, particularly frequent climate extremes, may greatly affect the annual runoff, ...
