Tensegrity structures are geometric nonlinear systems and statically and kinematically indeterminate structures that require an initial shape-finding procedure to establish a self-equilibrium state.

Kontax Engineering based in the United Kingdom has returned to Kickstarter for a fourth time to launch its new Tensegrity table a floating sculpture that uses the power of magnets to create a floating ...

Abstract: This study proposes a form-finding algorithm based on force density matrix decomposition for tensegrity structures. The only information required is node connection and component type. The ...

Abstract: Tensegrity exoskeletons, integrating both rigid and flexible components, offer potential advantages over conventional rigid or flexible exoskeletons, particularly in terms of compliance, ...
