• A new computational method for wrinkling analysis of gossamer space structures (2009, methodology): “The membrane model of wrinkling analysis is attributed to Wagner (1929). He introduced a suitable solid mechanics model known as the Tension Field Theory (TFT) for analyzing membrane structures under the wrinkling condition.”
• Deployable Tensegrity Structures for Space Applications (2002, background): “[42, 67], but still they cannot be regarded as a mature technology.”
