In architecture, it is common to use glass and metal panels in the fabrication of two-dimensional structures such as roofs or domes. The construction of movable structures constitutes an important stream in modern architecture. This project develops the theory of finite deformations of polyhedral surfaces with a view to real applications in architectural design. In particular, we analyse deformations of polyhedral surfaces which are composed of planar quadrilaterals in order to meet the structural, economic and aesthetic requirements of modern architecture.
