The paper describes numerical procedures, based on the method of dynamic relaxation with kinetic damping, for the form finding, analysis and fabrication patterning of wide-span cable nets and grid shells, uniform or variably prestressed fabric membranes and battened membrane roofs. The historical development of the method is briefly reviewed and a full description is then…
Seven form-finding methods for tensegrity structures are reviewed and classified. The three kinematical methods include an analytical approach, a non-linear optimisation, and a pseudo-dynamic iteration. The four statical methods include an analytical method, the formulation of linear equations of equilibrium in terms of force densities, an energy minimisation, and a search for the equilibrium configurations…

In the context of transmission tower optimization, the energy method and the force method are combined in order to form a holistic design and optimization approach, eliminating the need for time-intensive matrix inversion. A migration genetic algorithm is employed in the optimization process. Although this algorithm is suitable for towers with a limited number of…
This paper proposes a concept of deployable tensegrity space structures in future aerospace activities to avoid some difficulties of conventional deployable space structures. The fundamental geometrical characteristics for deployment of tensegrity masts are introduced. Some conceptual considerations for the one-dimensional deployable tensegrity are presented from the viewpoint of geometry. The conceptual model of one-dimensional deployable…
