    Reconfigurable deployable umbrella canopies
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Jovichikj, R.; Yaşır, Abdullah; Kiper, Gökhan
    The kinematic design of reconfigurable deployable canopy mechanisms with radially distributed limbs are presented in this study. The mechanisms allow a compact form and are reconfigurable with several alternative deployed forms which can be in the form of a tent, a canopy or a form in between. Each limb of the canopy possesses at least two assembly modes which enables reconfigurability. The conditions for deployment and reconfiguration of the mechanism are derived. These conditions impose equality and inequality constraints for the link lengths of the mechanism. A parametric model of the mechanism is constructed in Excel for design and simulation purposes. Solid models and a prototype are presented as examples.

    Design of Reconfigurable Doubly-Curved Canopy Structure
    (CRC Press, 2013) Maden, Feray; Korkmaz, Koray; Akgün, Yenal
    In this paper, a new reconfigurable doubly-curved structure has been developed for a canopy roof. The proposed structure can transform itself to various configurations according to the activity and user requirements. It not only changes its shape from a planar geometry to doubly-curved geometries by means of actuators, but also becomes stable and carries loads. The main differences between proposed structure and similar deployable bar structures are that the proposed structure is more flexible with 2DoF and it requires less number of bars and joints. To obtain the doubly-curved geometry, a novel method has been introduced. After discussing the kinematic behavior of the system, a set of structural analyses are performed in three different geometric configurations of the proposed structure.
