Assembly of reconfigurable Bricard-like mechanisms to form a multimode deployable arch

<p>This paper deals with the construction of a novel family of multimode deployable mechanisms based on reconfigurable Bricard-like mechanisms. By connecting a number of identical threefold-symmetric (TFS) Bricard-like mechanisms, a multimode deployable arch is proposed for the first time, whi...
