Project : |

 |
| Review and optimise the design of the "Spironef Panoramic", an
inflatable air-beam structure to be used as temporary entertainment space.
Sequential inflation of individual tubes allows the roof to open and close. |
My Role : |
 |
 |
- Create software to parametrically generate analysis model including pressure and external loading
- Develop contact element to model interaction between tubes
- Add "hidden groups" to software to allow distinction between inner- and outer-surface
- Perform analyses and optimise design
