A CONCEPT OF THE SDT (SELF DEPLOYABLE TENSEGRITY) STRUCTURE FOR THE RAPID AND PRECISE LIFTING OF HELIUM AEROSTATS, ESPECIALLY INTO THE STRATOSPHERE
An elementary, stable, compressed, six-node 3D bar and tie SDT (self-deployable tensegrity) structure with a compressed 1D (transport) and deployed 3D (operational) conformation, it consists of three rigid bars (2) and six low-pliability (3a, 3b) and three high-pliability elastic ties (4), where the low-pliability ties form two parallel triangular bases of the structure, which are connected to each other in such a way that each node (la, lb) of one base is connected to two nodes of the other base (la, lb) by one high-pliability elastic tie (4) and one bar (2); as apparatus, folded to the 1D form it is placed in a tube, and once it has reached the required altitude, a lightweight composite cylinder with compressed helium or a different carrier gas is used to fill the aerostat and is disconnected from the lifting platform. The self-tensioning support structure mechanism stabilizes the deployed form of the aerostat.
