Foldable Composite Structures
This paper presents a study of the folding of a new self-powered, self-latching tube hinge for deployable structures. This hinge is made by cutting three parallel slots in a thinwalled carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) tube, thus leaving three tape springs connecting the two ends of the tube.
متن کاملDeformations of Complex Structures
In this section, we discuss briefly how to compare different almost complex structures on a manifold. Let M be a fixed compact manifold, TM its tangent bundle. Let J ∈ End(TM ) be an almost complex structure on M , with associated decomposition TM ⊗ C ' TM 0,1 ⊕ TM 1,0, and projections π0,1 and π1,0 to the two summands. Now suppose J ′ is a second almost complex structure. The reader should thi...
متن کاملDeformations of Hypercomplex Structures
Twistor theory shows that deformations of a hypercomplex manifold correspond to deformations of a canonically constructed holomorphic map from the twistor space of the hypercomplex manifold onto the complex projective line. Applying Horikawa's theory of deformations of maps, we calculate deformations of compact quotients and twists of the associated bundles of quaternionic manifolds. In particu...
متن کاملDeformation Characteristics of Composite Structures
The composites provide design flexibility because many of them can be moulded into complex shapes. The carbon fibre-reinforced epoxy composites exhibit excellent fatigue tolerance and high specific strength and stiffness which have led to numerous advanced applications ranging from the military and civil aircraft structures to the consumer products. However, the modelling of the beams undergoin...
متن کاملSearching for Foldable Protein Structures Using Optimized
During evolution, the effective interactions between re.yidues in a protein can be adjusted through mutations to allow the protein to fold to its native structure on an adequate time scale. We seek to address the question: Are there some structures that can be better optimized than others? Using exhaustive enumeration of the compact conformations of short proteins confined to simple lattices, w...
