This work presents a study on the equilibrium problem and the infinitesimal mechanisms of class θ= 1 tensegrity prisms. Local solutions of the self-equilibrium problem are numerically obtained through Newton-Raphson iterations. The presented results suggest that the analyzed structures can be usefully employed as building blocks of novel tensegrity metamaterials, due to their rich kinematic response and the considerably large number of infinitesimal mechanisms.

Abstract
This work presents a study on the equilibrium problem and the infinitesimal mechanisms of class θ= 1 tensegrity prisms. Local solutions of the self-equilibrium problem are numerically obtained through Newton-Raphson iterations. The presented results suggest that the analyzed structures can be usefully employed as building blocks of novel tensegrity metamaterials, due to their rich kinematic response and the considerably large number of infinitesimal mechanisms.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
