Through his extensive research, inventions and structural experiments, Buckminster Fuller created the term tensegrity to describe "self-tensioning structures composed of rigid structures and cables, ...

Tensegrity structures are an impressive demonstration of how to achieve mechanical stability through tensile forces. Since the topic is currently trending it was probably only a matter of time before ...

Tensegrity structures, characterised by the interplay of discontinuous compression elements and continuous tension elements, have emerged as a promising design paradigm in robotics. These ...

Modeling of Tensegrity Structures (MOTES) provides two categories for the analysis of any tensegrity structure. Firstly, static analysis provides the minimum mass of the tensegrity structure by ...

If you’ve been on the internet in the past few weeks you may have come across a new word together with some scarcely believable images and videos. That word is tensegrity and the media attached to it ...

This investigation by Kuan-Ting Lai, developed as part of his thesis on Reconfigurable Systems of Tensegrity at the University of Stuttgart, is an exploration of the capabilities of structural ...

This repo contains code to create a simulation for tensegrity structures. It allows for continuous cables and 2D, 2.5D and 3D structures. This project uses Python3, in order to run it you will need ...

Mechanical structures combining rigid elements, like rods and bone, with flexible ones, like cables and membranes, are ubiquitous across a wide range of scales in natural and engineered systems. We ...
