X-Shell Pavilion: A Deployable Elastic Rod Structure

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Francis Julian Panetta, Etienne Bouleau

We present the X-Shell pavilion, a lightweight structure composed of elastic beam elements joined in a special layout that allows easy on-site deployment. The structure’s undeployed assembly configuration lies mostly flat and is easy to build, consisting o ...

X-Shell, a new spatial deployable lattice compared to traditional reticulated shells

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Francis Julian Panetta, Etienne Bouleau

The χ-Shells is a new kind of deployable reticulated shells that has features comparable to other traditional shells. Its deployment uses the mechanical properties of a beam grid to generate a three-dimensional shape. This new generation of reticulated she ...

Rapid Deployment of Curved Surfaces via Programmable Auxetics

Mark Pauly, Mina Konakovic Lukovic, Francis Julian Panetta

Deployable structures are physical mechanisms that can easily transition between two or more geometric configurations; such structures enable industrial, scientific, and consumer applications at a wide variety of scales. This paper develops novel deployabl ...
