In particular, high symmetry properties of the structures are extensively utilized. Conditions for self-equilibrium as well as super-stability of tensegrity structures are presented in detail. An analytical method and an efficient numerical method are given for self-equilibrium analysis of tensegrity structures: the analytical method deals with symmetric structures and the numerical method guarantees super-stability. Utilizing group representation theory, the text further provides analytical super-stability conditions for the structures that are of dihedral as well as tetrahedral symmetry. This book not only serves as a reference for engineers and scientists but is also a useful source for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students. Keeping this objective in mind, the presentation of the book is self-contained and detailed, with an abundance of figures and examples. 000726128 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 23, 2015). 000726128 650_0 $$aTensegrity (Engineering) 000726128 7001_ $$aOhsaki, Makoto,$$d1960-$$eauthor. 000726128 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9784431548126 000726128 830_0 $$aMathematics for industry (Springer (Firm)) ;$$vvolume 6. 000726128 852__ $$bebk 000726128 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-4-431-54813-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000726128 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:726128$$pGLOBAL_SET 000726128 980__ $$aEBOOK 000726128 980__ $$aBIB 000726128 982__ $$aEbook 000726128 983__ $$aOnline 000726128 994__ $$a92$$bISE
