摘要
张力完整性结构由承受压力构件和一系列连续的张力构件相互连接组成 .这种结构的稳定性取决于结构内部张力的完整性的保持 ,因而被称为张力完整性 .生物学研究表明细胞的结构符合张力完整性原理 .而且细胞骨架的张力完整性影响细胞的形状及其功能 .应用张力完整性原理可解释细胞内力化学转导的一些基本规律 .
Tensegrity structure is comprised of compression-resistant elements and a set of continuous tensile elements that are interconnected with each other. The stability of such system depends on maintenance of tensional integrity inside the structure, or what has come to be termed 'tensegrity'. According to studies on biology, cell structures are assembled on the basis of tensegrity mechanism. Tensegrity of cytoskeleton can affect cell shape and function. Furthermore, some basic rules of mechanochemical transduction in cells can be well explained using tensegrity theory.
