Form-finding of grid-shells using the ground structure and potential energy methods: a comparative study and assessment

The structural performance of a grid-shell depends directly on the geometry of the design. Form-finding methods, which are typically based on the search for bending-free configurations, aid in achieving structurally efficient geometries. This manuscript proposes two form-finding methods for grid-she...
