An Anthology of Structural Morphology

Rene Motro, "An Anthology of Structural Morphology" 

2010 | ISBN-10: 9812837205 | PDF | 212 pages | 5 MB

The structural morphology working group of the International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures, founded in 1991, has assisted to introduce several international conferences, newsletters and specific sessions of international conventions committed to structural morphology. Each and every variable of structural morphology is highlighted by one or more sections of the book. The work presented in this book is the outcome of more than 15 years of study by experts, designers, mathematicians, and architects, who thought that conceptual artwork would favour from the association of different fields (geometry, biology, and mechanics) in a holistic endeavor. This book contains documents that have been chosen either for their vital contribution to structural morphology or for their genuine applicability in the field.
