The structural morphology working group of the International
Association for Shell and Spatial Structures, founded in 1991, has helped to
launch several international seminars, newsletters and specific sessions of
international conferences devoted to structural morphology. This book contains
papers that have been selected either for their fundamental contribution to
structural morphology or for their actual pertinence in the field. Polyhedral
geometry, double-curved surfaces, biological structures, foldable systems,
form-finding techniques, and free form design are some of the topics included
in the contents of this book. The work presented in this book is the result of
more than 15 years of study by researchers, engineers, mathematicians, and
architects, who thought that conceptual design would benefit from the
association of separate fields (geometry, biology, and mechanics) in a holistic
process. Every aspect of structural morphology is illustrated by one or more
chapters of the book. As far as we know, there are few books - perhaps none -
that gather all aspects of structural morphology, even if, for instance, there
are many books on the geometry of polyhedra. Furthermore, readers will have
access to a large list of selected references, which will open the scope of
their bibliography.
