چکیده

We give an algebraic characterization of when a d-dimensional periodic framework has no non-trivial, symmetry preserving, motion for any choice of periodicity lattice. Our condition is decidable, and we provide a simple algorithm that does not require complicated algebraic computations. In dimension d = 2, we give a combinatorial characterization in the special case when the the number of edge orbits is the minimum possible for ultrarigidity. All our results apply to a fully flexible, fixed area, or fixed periodicity lattice.

Periodic Rigidity on a Variable Torus Using Inductive Constructions

In this paper we prove a recursive characterisation of generic rigidity for frameworks periodic in the plane with respect to a partially variable lattice. We follow the approach of modelling periodic frameworks as frameworks on a torus and use the language of gain graphs for the finite counterpart of a periodic graph. In this setting we employ variants of the Henneberg operations used frequentl...

The rigidity of periodic frameworks as graphs on a fixed torus

We define periodic frameworks as graphs on the torus, using the language of gain graphs. We present some fundamental definitions and results about the infinitesimal rigidity of graphs on a torus of fixed size and shape, and find necessary conditions for the generic rigidity of periodic frameworks on a d-dimensional fixed torus.

The rigidity of periodic body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus.

We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the generic rigidity of body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus. These frameworks correspond to infinite periodic body-bar frame-works in with a fixed periodic lattice.

Periodic frameworks and flexibility

We formulate a concise deformation theory for periodic bar-and-joint frameworks in Rd and illustrate our algebraic–geometric approach on frameworks related to various crystalline structures. Particular attention is given to periodic frameworks modelled on silica, zeolites and perovskites. For frameworks akin to tectosilicates, which are made of one-skeleta of d-dimensional simplices, with each ...

Fragmentary and incidental behaviour of columns, slabs and crystals.

Between the study of small finite frameworks and infinite incidentally periodic frameworks, we find the real materials which are large, but finite, fragments that fit into the infinite periodic frameworks. To understand these materials, we seek insights from both (i) their analysis as large frameworks with associated geometric and combinatorial properties (including the geometric repetitions) a...
