    • Gridshells in Recent Research—A Systematic Mapping Study 

      Dyvik, Steinar Hillersøy; Manum, Bendik; Rønnquist, Anders (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Gridshells are shells where the structural system is some kind of grid of linear members rather than a surface. With today’s focus on environmentally friendly solutions, gridshells have gained increased relevance as ...
    • Konseptuell design av kinematisk gitterskall 

      Treseng, Henrik Dahl (Master thesis, 2015)
      Et kinematisk gitterskall er ikke bare konstruksjonens arkitektoniske uttrykk, men også det bærende systemet. Det krever derfor et tett samarbeid mellom ingeniører og arkitekter for å finne en optimal form som tilfredsstiller ...
