Tensegrity structures are pre-stressed systems of cables and bars in which no bar is connected to the other and the structure has no continuous rigid skeleton.

To facilitate a deeper understanding of tensegrity structures, this book focuses on their two key design problems: self-equilibrium analysis and stability inves

This book discusses analytical tools for designing energy efficient and lightweight structures that embody the concept of tensegrity. The book provides both sta

The word tensegrity results from the contraction of 'tensional' and 'integrity', a word created by Richard Buckminster Fuller. He went on to describe tensegrity

The design of tall buildings and complex structures involves challenging activities, including: scheme design, modelling, structural analysis and detailed desig
