    2D and 3D Pre-Stressed Tensegrity DNA Structures by Liedl, Ingber, Shih

    Uploaded by

    Tensegrity Wiki
    A short powerpoint presentation by Tim Liedl, Donald E. Ingber, William M. Shih reviewing hte comparison between human-created tensegrity architectural structures on a building and sculptural scale, and natural and human-made tensegrities on the nano scale. The slide headings are (1) Excursion to Architecture: Continuous compression (2) Tensegrity - Tensional Integrity (3) Pre-stressed tensegrity design in architecture (4) Pre-stressed tensegrity in natureDNA cube (5) DNA Nanotechnology and (6) Future Directions.
