Sergio Pellegrino Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, Professor of Aeronautics and Civil Engineering, 2007–present. Studies of structural rigidity, with applications to prestressed mechanisms such as cable nets and tensegrity structures. Computations for statically and kinematically determinate/indeterminate structures. Research in deployable lightweight structures. New concepts for deployable space-based radar and antennas, retractable roofs, and multi-configuration structures. Self-deploying antennas made of ultra-thin composite materials that are folded elastically. Studies of deployment and stability of stratospheric balloons. Founder of Deployable Structures Laboratory (DSL) at University of Cambridge, 1990.
