This general introduction presents an original general method for the design of tensegrity structures, the first configurations of which were found by trial and error.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book begins with two-dimensional tensegrity structures, particularly tensegrity nets, tensegrity chains, tensegrity rings and tensegrity arches. These are then developed to original configurations of spatial tensegrity structures such as tensegrity slabs, primitive spatial tensegrity arches, and primitive tensegrity domes, as well as more elaborate spatial tensegrity structures such as tensegrity cylindrical shells, slim tensegrity domes, tensegrity vaults, and tensegrity caps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePresents a robust new approach to the design of tensegrity structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtends tensegrity structures to new three-dimensional configurations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTensegrity Structures Design Methods\u003c\/em\u003e suits structural, civil, and mechanical engineers and architects, as well as graduate students.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOren Vilnay is Professor Emeritus and was founder and head of the Department of Structural Engineering at Ben Gurion University Israel.
