About the Author
Connelly, Robert: - Robert Connelly is professor of mathematics at Cornell University and a pioneer in the study of tensegrities. His research focuses on discrete geometry, computational geometry, and the rigidity of discrete structures and its relations to flexible surfaces, asteroid shapes, opening rulers, granular materials, and tensegrities. In 2012 he was elected a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.Guest, Simon D.: - Simon D. Guest is Professor of Structural Mechanics in the Structures Group of the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge, and Head of the Civil Engineering Division. His research straddles the border between traditional structural mechanics and the study of mechanisms, and includes work on 'morphing' and 'deployable' structures.
