The presentation of IEM technology on slanted and flat truss constructions, with the RK-IEM ∞ loop iterating through Japan, Canada, and Australia, concludes in Europe with static analysis for curved truss constructions. All challenges involve finding iterative constructive elements using a simple equation for the lattice curve, based on existing knowledge, without differential calculus, and considering differences in parameters and variables for curves of a given radius. The RK-IEM ∞ loop in n dimensions, with five force members in the lattice bars of the lower and upper belts, as well as in the vertical and diagonal members (NDi, NGi, NVi, NKiH, NKiV), is defined by combining a flat truss construction with the position of the tangent of the iteration element. This introduces an additional parameter, αx, which transforms the planar RK-IEM element into a curvilinear or actual position. The RK-IEM COD is used to create simulation games and is also integrated into the organisational method of dynamic structural programming, or the DSP COD method, thereby bridging the gap between constructors and organisers or managers.
