710.00 Vertexial Connections

710.01 When a photograph is made of a plurality of lines crossing through approximately one point, it is seen that there is a blurring or a running together of the lines near the point, creating a web-like shadow between the converging lineseven though the individual lines may have been clearly drawn. This is caused by a refractive bending of the light waves. When the masses of the physically constituted lines converge to critical proximity, the relative impedance of light-wave passage in the neighborhood of the point increases as the second power of the relative proximities as multiplied by a factor of the relative mass density.

710.02 Tensegrity geodesic spherical structures eliminate the heavy sections of compression members in direct contact at their terminals and thus keep the heavy mass of respective compressions beyond critical proximities. As the vertexial connections are entirely tensional, the section mass is reduced to a minimum, and system “frequency” increase provides a cube-root rate of reduction of section in respect to each doubling frequency. In this manner, very large or very small tensegrity geodesic spheroids may be designed with approximate elimination of all microwave interferences without in any way impairing the structural dimensional stability.

710.03 The turbining, tensionally interlaced joints of the tensegrity- geodesic spheroids decrease the star-like vertexial interference patterns.
