This paper presents a numerical method for finding a tensegrity structure based on the ground structure method. We first solve a mixed integer programming (MIP) problem which maximizes the number of struts over the self-equilibrium condition of axial forces and the discontinuity condition of struts.
Tensegrities are lightweight space reticulated structures composed of cables and struts. Stability is provided by the self-stress state between tensioned and compressed elements. Tensegrity systems have in general low structural damping, leading to challenges with respect to dynamic loading. This pa
