Motion Structures : : Deployable Structural Assemblies of Mechanisms / / Zhong You, Yan Chen.
"Motion structures are simply assemblies of resistant bodies connected by movable joints. Unlike conventional structures, they allow large shape transformations to satisfy practical requirements and they can be used in:shelters, emergency structures and exhibition standsaircraft morphing wingss...
