The idea of extremal materials is applied to cellular tensegrity lattices of various scales, offering numerous advantages such as lightweight construction, high stiffness-to-mass ratio, structural control, adaptability, and unique mechanical properties. This study focuses on tensegrity lattices, whose inner architecture resembles that of cellular metamaterials but is aimed at civil engineering applications in non-material scales. It proposes a methodology for investigating the extremal mechanical properties of these systems, considering discrete and continuum approaches, including discussions on scale effects. The book is directed to researchers and scientists working on metamaterials and tensegrity systems, developing energy-absorption solutions for the building and transport industries. The findings described in this monograph can also be valuable in other applied sciences, such as civil engineering, robotics, and material science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 430g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032380414\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AnnaAl Sabouni-Zawadzka","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104522760442,"sku":"9781032380414","price":157.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1671804102326_book.jpg?v=1672044409","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/high-performance-tensegrityinspired-metamaterials-and-structures-9781032380414","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
