Abstract: Abstract Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) cushion structures with the capacities of aesthetical appearance, excellent insulation and high strength-to-weight ratio have attracted considerable attention in recent years. Conventional ETFE cushion structures need fundamental form finding and cutting… read more here.
