* Author: Wanda J Lewis * Hardbound ISBN: 978-0-7277-3236-1 * Publication Date: December 2003 * Format: Hardbound Book Summary The tension structures discussed in this book are predominantly roofing forms created from pre-stressed cable nets, cable trusses, and continuous membranes (fabric structures). A unique feature in their design is ?form-finding? ? an interactive process of defining the shape of a structure under tension. The book discusses the role of stable minimal surfaces (minimum energy forms occurring in natural objects, such as soap films) in finding optimal shapes of membrane and cable structures. The discussion of form-finding is extended to structural forms whose shape is supposedly known, such as suspension bridge cable Code: *************************************** Code: *************************************** RE: Tension Structures: Form and Behaviour - kowheng - 10-17-2010 Mirror Links: PDF 9.59 MB | RAR 8.68 MB Code: *************************************** RE: Tension Structures: Form and Behaviour - Dell_Brett - 04-20-2012 *************************************** Size: 9.1 MB RE: Tension Structures: Form and Behaviour - febo927 - 06-12-2018 *************************************** RE: Tension Structures: Form and Behaviour - rami1976 - 06-12-2018 *************************************** *************************************** |
