Active shaping and recovery are the important paths to reconfiguration and reuse of the structure, but only a few reconfiguration structures have been analyzed and explored, and their applicability also needs to be improved. Active shaping and recovery methods are proposed for the kirigami-inspired element with bistability and self- locking property in this paper. A rotationally symmetric kirigami pattern is designed with five geometric parameters at first. The finite element models are established to investigate the vertical tension and compression behavior. The bistability and self-locking behavior are analyzed systematically by the relation curves between strain energy, vertical and rotational displacement of the central square facet. The proposed active shaping method can be divided into the in-plane tension stage and the free deformation stage. Moreover, the key of the proposed active shaping method is the arrangement of the actuating position and the corresponding displacement and force, which are reported by parametric analysis. The recovery method is also put forward to make the model return from the folding stable state to the unfolding stable state. Besides, the cardboard model experiments are performed to verify the numerical analysis results, which is followed by the active shaping analysis of the surface with kirigami-inspired bistable elements. This principle opens a novel path to establish programmable and reconfigurable surface design systems with kirigami-inspired elements.

The large-span ice shell is a novel building style with the aid of inflatable formwork and water-spraying method. Ice material has strong temperature sensitivity, and the ice shell experiences complicated environmental conditions during the operation stage. A thermal-mechanical coupling analysis framework is presented to explore the thermal effect of the ice shell. The transient simulation method for the non-uniform temperature field is established. A thermoelastic damage model for fibre-reinforced ice is derived and the thermal damage analysis method is conducted. Subsequently, the non-uniform temperature field is mapped into the mechanical field of the ice shell structure to carry out the temperature effect and further evaluate the thermal damage. A large-span ice shell built in Harbin Ice and Snow World expounds the applicability of the proposed method in practice. The distribution of non-uniform temperature field on the ice shell is investigated and thermal damage is further studied.

With the continuous development of prestressing technology, cables have been widely used in structural engineering. A special concern in practical engineering is selecting the appropriate cable force measurement technology. This paper analyzes and introduces the principle of cable force measurement technology commonly used in current engineering from three aspects, namely, strain, vibration and wave fluctuation, and force balance. Combined with an actual project, the selection and arrangement of measuring points in the cable pre-tension measurement and other issues are discussed. The engineering example shows that the cable force measurement method based on FBG sensor presented in this paper can capture the action of each construction tensioning operations in real time and accurately. Monitoring the tension of the structure in real time is convenient for engineers and technician. The process is suitable for cable force monitoring during the construction tensioning stage. Furthermore, the EM sensor has good stability and durability and is suitable for long-term cable force monitoring.

The large impact of building structures on the environment must be reduced to meet the global targets fixed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Standard building structures with constant prismatic cross-section have material inefficiencies of around 66% (and up to 75% in some cases) that need to be addressed. Structural shaping, a subfield of shape optimization, offers a pathway to reduce the impact of building materials on the environment. Shaping statically determinate structures such as simply supported beams is relatively straightforward, but offers few design options compared to statically indeterminate structures. However, no methods provide an efficient way for designers to shape these systems according to their design intent or efficiency goals. Based on plasticity theory, this paper presents a shaping methodology to explore the design space of shaped indeterminate frame structures. The methodology is implemented in three case studies. In all the case studies, the methodology allows for the exploration of material-efficient yet diverse designs of shaped indeterminate frame structures. The implementation of this methodology can promote the use of structural shaping by offering more agency to structural designers to create diverse and efficient structural systems.

In order to analyze the buckling behavior of lattice shells stiffened by cables or slender braces without pre-tension, it is necessary to consider the no-compression property of braces. This paper proposes an innovative method of linear buckling analysis that considers the no-compression property of braces. Moreover, in order to examine the proposed method's validity, its results are compared with the results from a nonlinear buckling analysis with geometrical nonlinearity and material nonlinearity to express the no-compression property of braces. The results show that the proposed method can well-predict the buckling behaviors of lattice shells stiffened by tension braces.

The active bending concept provides a new perspective for a well-established structural type which has been used at various scales: the beam-string, consisting of a beam with an attached lower tie in tension and bracing struts balancing the forces between them. The idea goes back to the gutter beams of the Crystal Palace and has been widely used to the present for large-scale structures. When a slender beam is used, the tension in the tie induces curvature in the beam and increases the structural depth of the system; this opens new formal possibilities and results in lightweight structures at the expense of increasing their overall flexibility. Systems of this kind fall within the realm of active bending. We name them bending-active braced arches. The target shape of the system follows the tensioning process and needs to be pre-determined by means of a specific analysis, typically involving dynamic relaxation or optimization-based methods. In this paper, we propose an analytical method to generate shapes for bending-active braced arches. It assumes that each segment of the activated rod between deviators behaves as a segment of elastica; this enables the use of closed-form expressions to evaluate the shape and induced stress level in the active member. Taking advantage of this idea, it is possible to devise a procedure to carry out the shaping process in a sequential way by adequately choosing the design parameters. When alternative choices for the parameters are selected, the problem becomes non-linear and can be solved using suitable techniques. Some examples with different design constraints have been reproduced to illustrate the possibilities of the method.

Origami structures have been widely used in various engineering fields due to their desirable properties such as geometric transformability and high specific energy absorption. Based on the Kresling origami pattern, this study proposes a type of thin-walled origami tube the structural configuration of which is found by a mixed-integer linear programming model. Using finite element analysis, a reasonable configuration of a thin-walled tube with the Kresling pattern is firstly analyzed. Then, the influences of different material properties, the rotation angle of the upper and lower sections of the tube unit, and cross-sectional shapes on the energy absorption behavior of the thin-walled tubes under axial compression are evaluated. The results show that the symmetric thin-walled tube with the Kresling pattern is a reasonable choice for energy absorption purposes. Compared with thin-walled prismatic tubes, the thin-walled tube with the Kresling pattern substantially reduces the initial peak force and the average crushing force, without significantly reducing its energy absorption capacity; moreover, it enters the plastic energy dissipation stage ahead of time, giving it a superior energy absorption performance. Besides, the material properties, rotation angle, and cross-sectional shape have considerable influences on its energy absorption performance. The results provide a basis for the application of the Kresling origami pattern in the design of thin-walled energy-absorbingstructures.
