Özet
Primary objective of this dissertation is to propose a novel analytical design and implementation framework for deployable scissor-hinge structures which can offer a wide range of form flexibility. When the current research on this subject is investigated, it can be observed that most of the deployable and transformable structures in the literature have predefined open and closed body forms; and transformations occur between these two forms by using one of the various transformation types such as sliding, deploying, and folding. During these transformation processes, although some parts of these structures do move, rotate or slide, the general shape of the structure remains stable. Thus, these examples are insufficient to constitute real form flexibility. To alleviate this deficiency found in the literature, this dissertation proposes a novel transformable scissor-hinge structure which can transform between rectilinear geometries and double curved forms. The key point of this novel structure is the modified scissor-like element (M-SLE). With the development of this element, it becomes possible to transform the geometry of the whole system without changing the span length. In the dissertation, dimensional properties, transformation capabilities, geometric, kinematic and static analysis of this novel element and the whole proposed scissor-hinge structure are thoroughly examined and discussed. During the research, simulation and modeling have been used as the main research methods. The proposed scissor-hinge structure has been developed by preparing computer simulations, producing prototypes and investigating the behavior of the structures in these media by several kinematic and structural analyses.
