The present paper is dedicated to an evaluation of novel cellular metamaterials based on a
tensegrity pattern. The materials are constructed from supercells, each of which consists of a …

The study focuses on the identification of extreme mechanical properties of 3D lattice
metamaterials based on regular tensegrity modules: 4-strut simplex, 3-strut simplex …

The present study focuses on the research on modular tensegrity-based plate lattices, which
are reinforced with an internal skeleton consisting of enhanced tensegrity cells. The …

The paper is dedicated to the algebraic formulation of elastic frame equations. The obtained
set of equations describe deformations of moderately thick frames made of both …

Due to the complex structure of tensegrity systems it is often hard to understand their
behaviour and estimate their mechanical properties. As a result, they are rarely used in real …

This paper is dedicated to the extended solid (continuum) model of tensegrity structures or
lattices. Tensegrity is defined as a pin-joined truss structure with an infinitesimal mechanism …

Following current trends toward development of novel materials and structures, this volume
explores the concept of high-performance metamaterials and metastructures with extremal …

The main tasks of a mechanical engineer are constructing graphs of internal forces and
displacements of different sections of a mechanical structure. Structures can be determinate …

For the purpose of this paper tensegrities are defined as cable-strut structures consisting of
isolated compressed elements inside a continuous net of tensioned members [6]. Node …

Six-parameter shell theory is proposed for tensegrity-like structures. Continuum model to
describe mechanical properties of tensegrity lattices is based on the equivalence of the …
