Grid-shell optimality conjecture for vaults under finitely many point loads
Grid-shell optimality conjecture for vaults under finitely many point loads
Let be a finite collection of point forces, written as
A truss-like solution of is a measure of the form
where belong to . A vault optimally designed for a discrete load is a grid-shell. There exists such a truss-like solution of , and the optimal vault is therefore composed of finitely many bars joining boundary points and points of force application.
