| summary |
Our paper demonstrates a computational design workflow that creates and maps optimal 2D strut layouts based on input 3D shell geometries that function as membrane tensegrity shell (MTS) structures suitable for human occupancy. This workflow links conformal mapping, structural analysis, and optimisation algorithms to iterate through a series of strut layout parameters. From these layouts, we generate digital MTS models that, under structural loading, closely match their respective target models. We validate this workflow across five different geometries and this has produced low average local deviations that range between 47 to 65 mm, proving that our workflow is viable for non-standardised wide-spanning (8.0m) shell geometries with openings. |
