investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Indeterminate Architecture : Scissor Pair Transformable Structures
Most traditional architectural theories and practices aim at designing unique, fixed and ideal solutions. The general belief is that the final shape of a building can be achieved by analyzing present situations, such as clients’ stated needs, demands and desires. Likewise, this approach is based on descriptions and assumptions, which consider future situations as certain, invariable and in a pa...
متن کاملFlexibility in Architecture: An Innovative Design for Covering of a Transformable Dome Using Kinetic Elements
Flexibility is a concept associated with variable needs of human beings.Today transformable structures are used to meet human changeable demands with different purposes and functions such as facades, roofs, sunshades, etc.A Flexible structure must be able to change physically and adapt to predetermined conditions.To provide flexibility and adaptability,transformable systems are required to poss...
متن کاملTransformable masks for colloidal nanosynthesis
Synthetic skills are the prerequisite and foundation for the modern chemical and pharmaceutical industry. The same is true for nanotechnology, whose development has been hindered by the sluggish advance of its synthetic toolbox, i.e., the emerging field of nanosynthesis. Unlike organic chemistry, where the variety of functional groups provides numerous handles for designing chemical selectivity...
متن کاملStiffness-based Approach for Preliminary Design of Framed Tube Structures
A parametric formulation for preliminary design of tubed-system tall buildings is presented in which some optimality criteria and practical constraints are considered. Here, a minimum compliance optimization formulation, developed by other researchers, is applied to a framed-tube structure. The tube behavior is modeled as a cantilevered box beam. Independent variable in this problem is thicknes...
