We investigate how thin structures change their shape in response to non-mechanical stimuli that can be interpreted as variations in the structure's natural curvature. Starting from the theory of non-Euclidean plates and shells, we derive…

We introduce a rotation-invariant representation of planar shapes. In particular, this representation encodes shapes as vectors such that the Euclidean distance between them serves as a valid shape distance. For standardized, star-shaped…
