This review article presents prior studies on controlling shape and stress in flexible
structures. The study offers a comprehensive survey of literature concerning the adjustment …

This study presents a finite element analysis approach to nonlinear and linearized tensegrity
dynamics based on the Lagrangian method with nodal coordinate vectors as the …

This article is a state-of-art review on static structural computations for pin-jointed structures,
revising the last forty years of scientific research on the subject matter through the …

A prestressed cable-strut structure is usually regarded as a mechanism before being
prestressed. Under the action of initial prestresses, the internal infinitesimal mechanisms …

This work studies the acoustic band structure of tensegrity mass-spring chains, and the
possibility to tune the dispersion relation of such systems by suitably varying local and …

Force finding of cable dome structures is a sophisticated and indispensable procedure in
terms of their unique structural stiffness derived from self-equilibrium stress to the tension …

This piece of research aims to design and evaluate an impedance-based control for vehicle
suspension on the basis of the proposed generalized skyhook-groundhook hybrid strategy …

This paper presents a versatile form-finding method for tensegrity structures that is based on
solving a constrained optimization problem. A general constrained optimization model …

The structural stiffness of a cable-struts structure is dependent on its feasible pre-stresses.
The search for the pre-stresses is an inverse problem, and classical approaches for this …

The cable-strut structures rely entirely on prestressing to provide stiffness, making the design
of prestress crucial. This paper presents a novel method to determine the distribution of …
