Citations in the corpus

• Tensegrity frameworks: Dynamic analysis review and open problems (2009, background): “Regarding space applications, Tibert and Pellegrino [93] also studied the use of tensegrity structures to be used as on-board reflectors for small satellites, and Sultan et al.”
• Tensegrity deployment using infinitesimal mechanisms (2014, background): “Working on other tensegrity deployment problems, Tibert and Pellegrino (2002, 2003b) disputed tendon control claiming that it is technologically complicated and proposed deployment using foldable/telescopic struts.”
• Topology optimization of tensegrity structures under compliance constraint: a mixed integer linear programming approach (2013, background): “…real-world tensegrity structure consists of struts (and cables, respectively) with unified cross section, where the cross-sectional area of a strut is usually larger than that of a cable; see, e.g., the examples discussed in Adam and Smith (2008), Tibert and Pellegrino (2002), and Murakami (2001).”
• Form-finding of tensegrity structures with multiple states of self-stress (2011, background): “Over the past few decades, tensegrity structures first proposed by Fuller [1] have attracted considerable attention in a wide variety of fields including aerospace [2], architecture [3,4], civil engineering [5,6], biology [7–9], mathematics [10,11] and robotics [12,13].”
• Deployable Tensegrity Structures for Space Applications (2002, background): “In this chapter, the preliminary study of references [168,169] is significantly expanded.”
