Constrained Form-Finding of Tension-Compression Structures using Automatic Differentiation
Rafael Pastrana, Patrick Ole Ohlbrock, Thomas Oberbichler +2
This paper proposes a computational approach to form-find pin-jointed, bar structures subjected to combinations of tension and compression forces. The generated equilibrium states…
Robotic additive construction of bar structures: Unified sequence and motion planning
Yijiang Huang, Caelan Garrett, Ian Ting +2
Additive robotic construction of building-scale discrete bar structures, such as trusses and space frames, is increasingly attractive due to the potential improvements in efficienc…
Three Cooperative Robotic Fabrication Methods for the Scaffold-Free Construction of a Masonry Arch
Edvard P. G. Bruun, Rafael Pastrana, Vittorio Paris +4
Geometrically complex masonry structures (e.g., arches, domes, vaults) are traditionally built with expensive scaffolding or falsework to provide stability during construction. The…
