FlectoSol – A pneumatically activable PV-functionalized façade shading module with bending motion in two directions for solar tracking

A continuously adjustable façade shading system functionalized with photovoltaics enables, besides adaptive shading, energy harvesting by solar tracking. This requires large bending motion in two directions. In this paper, the development of an appropriate façade module – FlectoSol – is presented. T...
