    A Novel Transformable Structural Mechanism for Doubly Ruled Hypar Surfaces
    (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2015) Maden, Feray; Aktaş, Engin; Korkmaz, Koray
    A novel structural mechanism (SM) that is capable of transforming itself into various hyperbolic paraboloid (hypar) geometries is introduced in this paper. Composed of straight bars and novel joint types, the SM is designed based on the ruled surface generation method. Thus, the paper first investigates the geometrical properties and morphology of the hypar surface. Second, it constructs the SM and discusses its transformation capability with respect to its kinematic properties. Then, it presents a parametric model not only to analyze the geometry and possible configurations of the SM but also to prepare a model for the structural analysis. Finally, a transformable shelter structure is proposed as an architectural application of the SM and its feasibility is tested based on the structural analysis conducted in different configurations of the structure. According to the results of the structural analysis, the strength, and the stiffness of the structure are discussed in detail.

    A New Approach To the Generation of Retractable Plate Structures Based on One-Uniform Tessellations
    (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2017) Gazi Gezgin, Aylin; Korkmaz, Koray
    Retractable plate structure (RPS) is a family of structures that is a set of cover plates connected by revolute joints. There exists wide range of possibilities related with these structures in architecture. Configuring the suitable shape of rigid plates that are able to be enclosed without any gaps or overlaps in both closed and open configurations and eliminating the possibility of contact between the plates during the deployment have been the most important issues in RPS design process. Many researchers have tried to find the most suitable shape by using kinematical or empirical analysis so far. This study presents a novel approach to find the suitable shape of the plates and their assembly order without any kinematical or empirical analysis. This approach is benefited from the one-uniform mathematical tessellation technique that gives the possibilities of tiling a plate using regular polygons without any gaps or overlaps. In the light of this technique, the shape of the plates is determined as regular polygons and two conditions are introduced to form RPS in which regular polygonal plates are connected by only revolute joints. It should be noted that these plates are not allowed to become overlapped during deployment and form gaps in closed configuration. Additionally, this study aims to reach a single degreeof- freedom (DoF) RPS. It presents a systematic method to convert multi-DoF RPS into single DoF RPS by using the similarity between graph theory and the duality of tessellation.

    Design of a 2-Dof 8r Linkage for Transformable Hypar Structure
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2012) Korkmaz, Koray; Akgün, Yenal; Maden, Feray
    Double curved geometries including hyperbolicparaboloids (hypars) have become a trend in contemporary architecture. However, most of the constructed architectural examples of the hypars are static and cannot offer any form variability. In this paper, a 2-DOF 8R linkage mechanism is introduced to buildtransformable hypar structures. It is inspired from the basic design principles of Bennett linkage. By its distinctive connection details and additional links, this novel mechanism can change its form fromplanar geometries to various hypars. The paper begins with the brief summary of the applications of hypar structures in architecture. Secondly, main principles and deficiencies of the Bennett linkage are presented. According to these deficiencies, structural synthesis of the novel mechanism is considered. Finally, advantages and potential uses of the proposed novel mechanism are explained. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
