SOFTENING THE HABITATS - Sustainable innovation in minimal mass structures and lightweight architectures.
Edited by Alessandra Zanelli, Carol Monticelli, Marijke Mollaert and Bernd Stimpfle
This publication contains 55 papers of a multi-form and multi-disciplinary kaleidoscopic set about theoretical and experimental research studies, professional jobs and industrial developments. They were selected through a complex and accurate blind review process, which was led by the TS19 scientific committee and then assigned three expert reviewers for each paper. Link E-book
