摘要：

Taking the cue from two recent papers, Fraternali et al. (J Mech Phys Solids 60:1137-1144, 2012), and Fraternali et al. (Appl Phys Lett 105:201903, 2014), we sample numerically the impulsive dynamics of chains consisting of T3 tensegrity modules. We concentrate on illustrating the effects of the kinetic coupling between axial strain and twist, a distinguishing feature of T3 modules that was switched off in the cited papers; in addition, we demonstrate by examples that another feature of T3 modules, their 'handedness', induces certain peculiar behaviors in chains made of both left-handed and right-handed modules. In our study, we consider a number of T3 chains, different in composition and subject to various end conditions.
