Bending-active kit-of-parts systems: Uniformity generating complexity Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Utilising the inherent elasticity of their flexible components, bending-active struc-tures can easily be produced from planar or linear components. Although the components and their fabrication can be very simple, the deformation behaviour is often complex and can result in complex structural geometries. Parametric tools allow modelling such geometries by including material properties and behaviour early on in the ...
