Origami crease patterns are folding paths that transform flat sheets into spatial objects. Origami patterns with a single degree of freedom (DOF) have creases that fold simultaneously. More often, several substeps are required to…
Origami morphing, obtained with patches of piecewise smooth isometries separated by straight fold lines, is an exquisite art that has already received considerable attention in the mathematics and mechanics literature. Curved fold lines,…
Non-Euclidean origami is a promising technique for designing multistable deployable structures folded from nonplanar developable surfaces. The impossibility of flat foldability inherent to non-Euclidean origami results in two disconnected…
We present a novel parabolic reflector system capable of generating a broader class of shapes beyond canonical parabolas. Using a discretized framework, we construct meshes corresponding to key families of developable surfaces, including…
A new continuous model of shearable rod, subject to large elastic deformation, is derived from nonlinear homogenization of a one-dimensional periodic microstructured chain. As particular cases, the governing equations reduce to the Euler…
The study of origami-based mechanical metamaterials usually focuses on the kinematics of deployable structures made of an assembly of rigid flat plates connected by hinges. When the elastic response of each panel is taken into account,…
We study the spontaneous folding of a 2D template of microscopic panels into a 3D pyramid, driven by thermal fluctuations. Combining numerical simulations and analytical calculations, we find that the total folding time is a non-monotonic…
Periodic forcing of nonlinear oscillators leads to a large number of dynamic behaviors. The coupling of the cell-cycle to the circadian clock provides a biological realization of such forcing. Using high throughput single-cell microscopy,…
Geometrical frustration induced anisotropy and inhomogeneity are explored to achieve unique properties of metamaterials that set them apart from conventional materials. According to Neumann's principle, to achieve anisotropic responses, the…
Origami metamaterial design enables drastic qualitative changes in the response properties of a thin sheet via the addition of a repeating pattern of folds based around a rigid folding motion. Known also as a mechanism, this folding motion…
We explore magnetic-field-driven chaos in magnetic skyrmions. Oscillating magnetic fields induce nonlinear dynamics in skyrmions, arising from the coupling of the secondary gyrotropic mode with a non-uniform, breathing-like mode. Through…
Initially straight slender elastic rods with geometrically constrained ends buckle and form stable two-dimensional shapes when compressed by bringing the ends together. It is also known that beyond a critical value of the pre-stress,…
We discuss the method of folding for discrete planar systems and use it to establish the existence or non-existence of cycles or chaos in planar systems of rational difference equations with variable coefficients. These include some systems…
In this study, we examine a rapid and reversible origami folding method by exploiting a combination of resonance excitation, asymmetric multi-stability, and active control. The underlying idea is that, by harmonically exciting a…
Recently there have been extensive theoretical, numerical and experimental works on curved-fold origami. However, we notice that a unified and complete geometric framework for describing the geometry and mechanics of curved-fold origami,…
Traditional origami starts from flat surfaces, leading to crease patterns consisting of Euclidean vertices. However, Euclidean vertices are limited in their folding motions, are degenerate, and suffer from misfolding. Here we show how…
Kagome antiferromagnets are known to be highly frustrated and degenerate when they possess simple, isotropic interactions. We consider the entire class of these magnets when their interactions are spatially anisotropic. We do so by…
Spin coating is an out-of-equilibrium technique for producing polymer films and colloidal crystals quickly and reproducibly. In this review, we present an overview of theoretical and experimental studies of the spin coating of colloidal…
We consider the zero-energy deformations of periodic origami sheets with generic crease patterns. Using a mapping from the linear folding motions of such sheets to force-bearing modes in conjunction with the Maxwell-Calladine index theorem…
We study the three-dimensional equilibrium shape of a shell formed by a deployed accordion-like origami, made from an elastic sheet decorated by a series of parallel creases crossed by a central longitudinal crease. Surprisingly, while the…
