This Chapter presents a range of additive manufacturing techniques available for the rapid prototyping of tensegrity systems at various scales. It discusses the opportunities and challenges of these techniques, with the primary challenges arising from difficulties in manufacturing perfectly hinged connections and applying internal prestress. The Chapter concludes by summarizing the key findings from current research on the additive manufacturing of tensegrity systems and highlighting promising directions for future research in this area.

Abstract
This Chapter presents a range of additive manufacturing techniques available for the rapid prototyping of tensegrity systems at various scales. It discusses the opportunities and challenges of these techniques, with the primary challenges arising from difficulties in manufacturing perfectly hinged connections and applying internal prestress. The Chapter concludes by summarizing the key findings from current research on the additive manufacturing of tensegrity systems and highlighting promising directions for future research in this area.File in questo prodotto:
