Frameworks in Motion

The goal of Frameworks in Motion is to provide an introduction to combinatorial rigidity theory at a level that is accessible for undergraduates and other users of rigidity theory with a modest mathematical background, calculus, linear algebra, and a familiarity with proof writing. We are releasing drafts because we want feedback that will improve the book. Please do contact us to let us know if you
