Deployable structures can expand and contract due to their geometrical, material and mechanical properties – offering the potential to create truly transformi

Deployable structures can vary their shape automatically from a compact, packaged configuration to an expanded, operational configuration. The first properly en

Deployable structures are prefabricated and can be transformed from a closed, compact configuration to a predetermined, expanded form in which they are stable a

Motion structures are simply assemblies of resistant bodies connected by movable joints. Unlike conventional structures, they allow large shape transformations
