Minimum energy adaptive structures – All-In-One problem formulation

Gennaro Senatore, Yafeng Wang

This paper presents a new All-In-One (AIO) implementation of an existing formulation to design adaptive structures through Total Energy Optimization (TEO). The method implemented in previous work is a nested optimization process, here named TEO-Nested. Num ...

Optimum design of frame structures from a stock of reclaimed elements

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Gennaro Senatore, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

This paper presents optimization methods to design frame structures from a stock of existing elements. These methods are relevant when reusing structural elements over multiple service lives. Reuse has the potential to reduce the environmental impact of bu ...

A new method to design structures that adapt to loads via large shape changes

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

The construction industry contributes to more than a third of the global energy demand and consumes almost half of all mined material resources. It is thus important to include energy and material efficiency criteria for the design of civil structures. Ada ...

Extended Integrated Force Method for the analysis of prestress-stable statically and kinematically indeterminate structures

Gennaro Senatore, Yafeng Wang

This paper presents a new force method to predict the structural response of statically and kinematically indeterminate systems that can be stabilized through prestress, i.e. prestress-stable structures. This new force method, here named Extended Integrate ...

Synthesis of minimum energy adaptive structures

Gennaro Senatore

This paper presents the formulation of a new methodology to design adaptive structures. This design method synthesises structural configurations that are optimum hybrids between a passive and an active structure. An optimisation scheme searches for an opti ...

Design of structures that adapt to loads through large shape changes

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

Adaptive structures can modify their geometry and internal forces through sensing and mechanical actuation in order to maintain optimal performance under changing actions. Previous work has shown that well-conceived adaptive design strategies achieve subst ...

Synthesis of Kit-of-parts Structures for Reuse

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Gennaro Senatore, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Ioannis Mirtsopoulos, Alex-Manuel Muresan

This paper shows a computational workflow to design a kit of parts consisting of linear bars and spherical joints that can be employed to assemble, take apart, and rebuild diverse reticular structures, e.g. gridshells and space frames. Being able to reuse ...

Structures that adapt to loads through large shape changes: design and optimization

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

The construction industry is a major contributor to the consumption of mined material resources and to the global energy demand. It is thus important to consider energy and material efficiency criteria for the design of civil structures. Through sensing an ...

Optimum Truss Design with Reused Stock Elements

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Gennaro Senatore, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

This paper proposes the application of optimization techniques to design reticular structures made from a stock of reused elements. Still little explored, the reuse of structural components over multiple service lives has the potential to reduce the enviro ...

A proof of equivalence of two force methods for active structural control

Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

This paper gives a proof of equivalence between two existing force methods (FM) for structural analysis: The Integrated Force Method (IFM) and a force method based on singular value decomposition (SVD) of the equilibrium conditions here named as SVD-FM. Re ...

Large and reversible shape changes as a strategy for structural adaptation

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

Adaptive structures are sensed and actuated to perform tasks such as modifying their internal load-path in response to external actions to maintain optimal performance. Shape control and load-path redirection have been investigated to counteract the effect ...

Design and fabrication of a reusable kit of parts for diverse structures

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Gennaro Senatore, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

Reusing structural components for multiple service cycles has potential to lower building structures environmental impact because it reduces material resource use, energy consumption, and waste production. One strategy to reuse structural components is to ...

Design of ultra-lightweight and energy-efficient civil structures through shape morphing

Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

This paper gives a new formulation to synthesize load-responsive structures through shape morphing. The design method is based on the minimization of the whole-life energy, which comprises an embodied share in the material and an operational share for adap ...

Structural Adaptation through Stiffness Tuning

Gennaro Senatore

Adaptive design strategies have been employed to improve structural performances in terms of load-bearing efficiency and energetic impact as well as to achieve multi-functionality. In this work, we investigate a passive adaptation strategy that employs var ...
