Innovative
Structural Safety Monitoring System
An innovative system for wireless
real-time monitoring of stresses in buildings, both existing and new
buildings, in order to record their response and assess their safety during
their life cycle and in particular during earthquakes or other extreme
environmental actions. Demonstration of this system is given through live
experiments with the aid of scale models and tensegrity structures. Tensegrity Structures with antagonistic
superelastic cables project. The deployable
tensegrity structure is used, for example, also to build deployable antennas
in orbit for satellite communication. The project envisages an experimental
model of shape change structure driven by a pair of nitinol antagonist
cables. |
