A new approach to the analytical and numerical form-finding of tensegrity structures (2013, methodology): “Recent reviews of the form-finding and analysis of tensegrities may be found in Hernàndez Juan and Mirats Tur (2008), Mirats Tur and Hernàndez Juan (2009), Sultan (2009) and Tibert and Pellegrino (2003).”
A direct approach to design of geometry and forces of tensegrity systems (2006, methodology): “Tibert and Pellegrino (2003) classified the existing methods for the form-finding of tensegrity system into two categories; i.e. kinematical methods and statical methods.”
Tensegrity deployment using infinitesimal mechanisms (2014, background): “This property is called prestressability and these equilibrium configurations, prestressable configurations (see Tibert and Pellegrino (2003a) for a review of methods to find such configurations).”
Zero stiffness tensegrity structures (2007, background): “For example, form finding in 3 dimensions would only be able to produce planar equilibrium configurations (Tibert and Pellegrino, 2003).”
Deployable Tensegrity Structures for Space Applications (2002, background): “The parts of this chapter concerned with form-finding are reproduced from reference [170] with some minor modifications.”
Design and control of tensegrity robots for locomotion (2006, background): “A good review of these and other form-finding methods can be found in [50].”
Advanced form-finding of tensegrity structures (2010, methodology): “(6) becomes: Dx 1⁄4 0; ð9aÞ Dy 1⁄4 0; ð9bÞ Dz 1⁄4 0; ð9cÞ where D known as force density matrix [14,10] or stress matrix [17–19] can be written directly by [7,18,19] without using Eq.”
Advanced form-finding for cable-strut structures (2010, background): “Tibert and Pellegrino (2003) presented a review paper for the existing methods for form-finding problem of tensegrity structures.”
