Keywords: Earthquake engineering, cable dynamics; nonlinear dynamics; flexible bus conductors; earthquake excitation; tensegrity; complementarity Abstract: The use of cables may be seen in different ...

Cable‐harnessed beam structures constitute a significant advancement in the design of modern engineering systems, where strategically routed cables are integrated into beam frameworks to enhance ...

Systems of rigid rods acquire rigidity via the addition of random additional rods and cables, as captured via a graph theory. The research team's main object of study, shown here, is structures that ...

The sub-category of soft robotics has transformed the way many think about the field. Oft-influenced by natural phenomenon, the technology offers a dramatically different approach than the sort of ...

Every transformation monoid comes equipped with a canonical topology, the topology of pointwise convergence. For some structures, the topology of the endomorphism monoid can be reconstructed from its ...
