Motion Structural Optimization Strategy for Rhombic Element Based Foldable Structure

This research presents a new systematical design approach of foldable structure composed of several rhombic elements by applying genetic algorithm. As structural shapes represented by a foldable structure can be easily and dramatically morphed by manipulating rotational directions and angle of joint...
