Easy-to-actuate multi-compatible truss structures with prescribed reconfiguration
Abstract Multi-stable structures attract great interest because they possess special energy landscapes with domains of attraction around the stable states.Consequently, multi-stable structures have the potential to achieve prescribed reconfiguration with only a few lightweight actuators (such as shape-memory alloy springs), and do not need constant
