Mechanical response of tensegrity-origami solar modules

This work studies the mechanics of novel origami solar modules with tensegrity architecture for integration in the dynamic solar façades of energy-efficient buildings. The analyzed modules are deployed by adjusting the rest lengths of cables attached to given nodes, so as to form a tensegrity origam...
