Parametric Design of Minimal Mass Tensegrity Bridges Under Yielding and Buckling Constraints
Gerardo Carpentieri, Robert E. Skelton, Fernando Fraternali
This paper investigates the use of the most fundamental elements; cables for tension and bars for compression, in the search for the most efficient bridges. Stable arrangements of…

Experimental investigation of the softening-stiffening response of tensegrity prisms under compressive loading
Ada Amendola, Fernando Fraternali, Gerardo Carpentieri +2
The present paper is concerned with the formulation of new assembly methods of bi-material tensegrity prisms, and the experimental characterization of the compressive response of s…
