    An analytical model for Tensairity girders 
    LUCHSINGER, Rolf H.; TEUTSCH, Uwe (Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2009-12-14)
    An analytical model for the deflection of a symmetric, spindle shaped Tensairity girder under homogenous load is proposed which can be solved analytically. The results are compared to FEM predictions for a specific ...

    Mechanisms for deployable tensairity structures 
    DE LAET, Lars; MOLLAERT, Marijke; LUCHSINGER, Rolf H.; TEMMERMAN, Niels De; GULDENTOPS, Laurent (Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2010-02-24)
    This paper investigates suitable deployment mechanisms for Tensairity structures. Three proposals for a compression element for a deployable Tensairity structure are presented: the 'spiral folding mechanism' (segmented ...
