  1. Tensegrity - Wikipedia

    Tensegrity, tensional integrity or floating compression is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension, and …

  2. Tensegrity Applications to Architecture, Engineering and ... - MDPI

    Jul 27, 2023 · Tensegrity structures are prestressed and self-stable pin-connected frameworks built up mainly from two kind of elements, in compression (bars) and in tension (tendons).

  3. Tensegrity - Buckminster Fuller Institute

    Tensegrity refers to structurally sound constructions that feature a radical separation of compression and tension. Generally the compression members are wooden or metal struts, …

  4. What Is a Tensegrity Structure and How Does It Work?

    Tensegrity, a portmanteau of “tensional integrity,” describes a structural principle where stability arises from the careful interplay of tension and compression.

  5. Tensegrity Structures: What They Are and Their Potential

    Sep 30, 2025 · Tensegrity, a portmanteau of “tensional integrity,” refers to a structural design principle that employs a unique combination of tensile (pulling) and compressive (pushing) …

  6. Linearized vibration analysis of tensegrity structures in rigid-body ...

    4 days ago · This study presents a unified linearized vibration analysis framework for tensegrity structures that explicitly incorporates both constraint-induced g…

  7. The Role of Tensegrity Structures in Civil and Architectural …

    Aug 19, 2025 · Tensegrity, also referred to as tensional integrity or floating compression, is a unique structural principle that has gained significant attention in civil and architectural …

  8. Basic Tensegrity Concepts and Calculation Methods - Springer

    In this chapter, the fundamental notions about tensegrity systems are presented, together with the basic calculation methods. After giving a general introduction to the main tensegrity concepts, …

  9. Tensegrity Explained – Physics Lens

    Apr 28, 2022 · There is a new internet trend called “tensegrity” – an amalgamation of the words tension and integrity. It is basically a trend of videos showing how objects appear to float …

  10. Tensegrity | Research Starters - EBSCO

    Tensegrity is a structural principle that combines compression elements with tension elements to produce a stable, rigid form. The name tensegrity was coined in the mid-twentieth century and …
