Resilient Apertures
MATERIAL The Nitinol (Nickle 51% + Titanium 49%) is a shape memory alloy which can be programmed to take a certain shape at actuating temperature which is called the austenite state ranging from 45-85⁰C. This smart material possesses a great load carrying capacity when it is transforming back to its programmed shape on [...]

LIGHTWEIGHT KINETIC STRUCTURES
AUTHORS: Ji Won Jun, Josep Alcover, Matteo Silverio FRAMEWORK: Kinetic Responsive Architecture OBJECTIVE: Designing and prototyping a generic lightweight kinetic structural system that can react both to environmental conditions and to user’s needs. DESCRIPTION: The project is based on the study of tensegrity structures as a starting point to develop multiple digital and physical models of different [...]
