Buckling Soft Tensegrities: Fickle Elasticity and Configurational Switching in Living Cells
Massimiliano Fraldi, Stefania Palumbo, Angelo Rosario Carotenuto +3
Tensegrity structures are special architectures made by floating compressed struts kept together by a continuous system of tensed cables. The multiplicity of shapes that tensegrity…
