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 ...

MILP-based discrete sizing and topology optimization of truss structures: new formulation and benchmarking

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

Discrete sizing and topology optimization of truss structures subject to stress and displacement constraints has been formulated as a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) problem. The computation time to solve a MILP problem to global optimality via a b ...

Design and testing of a low-energy and -carbon prototype structure that adapts to loading through shape morphing

Ian Smith, Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

This paper presents an experimental validation of a new design method for adaptive structures that counteract the effect of loading through shape morphing. The structure is designed to morph into target shapes that are optimal to take external loads throug ...

Multi-scale experimental testing on variable stiffness and damping components for semi-active structural control

Gennaro Senatore

This paper presents experimental testing of a new semi-active vibration control device comprising a shape memory polymer (SMP) core that is reinforced by an SMP-aramid composite skin. This control device works as a load-transfer component that can be integ ...

Synthesis of Kit-of-parts Structures for Reuse

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

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 ...

Design of adaptive structures through energy minimization: extension to tensegrity

Gennaro Senatore, Yafeng Wang

This paper gives a new formulation to design adaptive structures through total energy optimization (TEO). This methodology enables the design of truss as well as tensegrity configurations that are equipped with linear actuators to counteract the effect of ...

Seismic control performance of a three-story frame prototype equipped with semi-active variable stiffness and damping structural joints

Gennaro Senatore

This paper presents numerical and experimental studies on semi-active seismic response control of structures equipped with variable stiffness and damping structural joints. Such adaptive joints, which are comprised of a shape memory polymer (SMP) core rein ...

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 ...

Force and Shape Control Strategies for Minimum Energy Adaptive Structures

Gennaro Senatore, Arka Prabhata Reksowardojo

This work presents force and shape control strategies for adaptive structures subjected to quasi-static loading. The adaptive structures are designed using an integrated structure-control optimization method developed in previous work, which produces minim ...
