1947年，一位名叫肯尼思·斯奈尔森（Kenneth Snelson）的年轻艺术家发明了一种有趣的结构：几根棍子牢牢地悬在半空中，彼此不接触。这就像一个魔术。他向企业家、建设者、梦想家和自封的数学家R。富勒称之为张力整体性，因为它的“张力整体性”。富勒谈到了张力，并写了大量关于他们。斯奈尔森继续在世界各地建造了各种各样迷人的张拉整体雕塑，包括位于华盛顿的赫什霍恩博物馆的60英尺高的艺术作品。如图所示。
In 1947 a young artist named Kenneth Snelson invented an intriguing structure: a few sticks suspended rigidly in mid air without touching each other. It seemed like a magic trick. He showed this to the entrepreneur, builder, visionary, and self-styled mathematician, R. Buckminster Fuller, who called it atensegritybecause of its “tensional integrity.” Fuller talked about tensegrities and wrote about them extensively. Snelson went on to build a great variety of fascinating tensegrity sculptures all over the world, including the 60-foot work of art at the Hirschhorn Museum in Washington, DC. shown in Figure.
