The authors discuss analytical tools to design energy efficient and lightweight structures employing the concept of 'tensegrity.' In a tensegrity structure the rigid bodies (the bars) might not have any contact, thus providing extraordinary freedom to control shape, by controlling only tendons.Skelton, Robert E. is the author of 'Tensegrity Systems', published 2009 under ISBN 9780387742410 and ISBN 0387742417.
