On the determinacy of repetitive structures
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that repetitive, infinite structures cannot be simultaneously statically and kinematically determinate, and that infinite structures can not be statically determinate with respect to each other.

Scaling to zero of compressive modulus in disordered isostatic cubic networks.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors developed an analytic method to calculate the bulk compressive modulus B for various boundary conditions as a function of disorder strength and system size, and showed that B is analytically and numerically shown to decay as L^{-μ} with μ{large}=d-θ for large disorder and μ{small}=max{(d-1),0} for small disorder.

Free and random vibration analyses of hourglass lattice sandwich panel using an equivalent model based on variational asymptotic method
TL;DR: In this article , a two-dimensional equivalent plate model (2D-EPM) is constructed based on the equivalent stiffness obtained by the variational asymptotic homogenization of the unit cell.

Foam topology bending versus stretching dominated architectures
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the topological criteria that dictate the deformation mechanism of a cellular solid by analysing the rigidity (or otherwise) of pin-jointed frameworks comprising inextensional struts.

On graphs and rigidity of plane skeletal structures
TL;DR: In this paper, the combinatorial properties of rigid plane skeletal structures are investigated, and the properties are found to be adequately described by a class of graph-structured graphs.

Matrix analysis of statically and kinematically indeterminate frameworks
TL;DR: In this paper, the structural mechanics of assemblies of bars and pinjoints, particularly where they are simultaneously statically and kinematically indeterminate, are investigated, and an algorithm is set up which determines the rank of the matrix and the bases for the four subspaces.

Buckminster Fuller's “Tensegrity” structures and Clerk Maxwell's rules for the construction of stiff frames
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a single state of self-stress in the frame has the effect of imparting first-order stiffness to the frame, and it seems from experiments that such states can stiffen a large number of modes.
