- Principle
- A woven node is formed by connecting adjacent cylindrical gridshell components. This connection generates a tessellation of triangular tiles on the node’s surface. Triangular tiles are essential to lock the kinematic behavior of the scissor linkage in the deployable cylinders. Given the resulting topology at the node, interlacing principles must be carefully defined to connect these curves. The shape of a woven node is the result of the curve topology and the balancing of bending and twisting in the structure.
