Globally stable minimal mass compressive tensegrity structures

Theory exists for minimal mass tensegrity structures under compressive loads, constrained against local buckling of members. This paper extends that theory to include constraints against global buckling. We design compressive tensegrity structures in the T-Bar configuration defined in Skelton and de...
