IUTAM-IASS Symposium on Deployable Structures: Theory and Applications: Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium held in Cambridge, U.K., 6-9 September 1998 (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications)

This collection presents 49 contributions by engineers, architects, biologists, and applied mathematicians interested in deployable structures. Aerospace structures are currently at the leading edge, and this is reflected by a larger number of contributions covering the full spectrum of concepts, simulations, testing, and working systems.
