Solitary waves on tensegrity lattices

We study the dynamics of lattices formed by masses connected through tensegrity prisms. By employing analytic and numerical arguments, we show that such structures support two limit dynamic regimes controlled by the prisms’ properties: (i) in the low-energy (sonic) regime the system supports the for...
