Multiparameter actuation for shape control of bistable composite plates (2010, background): “An important point to be investigated is the influence of boundary conditions and the effect of the integration of the proposed bistable device in more complex structural members (see e.g. Mattioni et al., 2009).”
On the thermally induced bistability of composite cylindrical shells for morphing structures (2012, background): “In the recent past, the multistability of slender laminates has received significant attention, because it has shown potential for morphing applications (e.g. Dano and Hyer, 1998; Seffen, 2007; Kebadze et al., 2004; Diaconu et al., 2008; Mattioni et al., 2009).”
Morphing shell structures: A generalised modelling approach (2015, background): “In this sense, and unlike other semi-analytical approaches [22, 23, 7], DQM guarantees accuracy at a relatively computational cost.”
