Origami traces its origins to an ancient art form transforming flat thin surfaces into various
complex, fabulous 3D objects. Nowadays, such transformation transcends art by offering a …

Origami structures with morphing behaviours and unique mechanical properties are useful
in aerospace deployable structures, soft robots and mechanical metamaterials. Curved …

Geometrical‐frustration‐induced anisotropy and inhomogeneity are explored to achieve
unique properties of metamaterials that set them apart from conventional materials …

Origami-inspired structures can manifest a range of interesting characteristics such as
reconfigurability and multi-stablity. Theoretically, the energy of rigid-foldable origami …

In this study, a three-dimensional compression-torsion coupled negative Poisson structure
was designed by combining the perforated plate with the inclined rod out of the plane. This …

Origami-inspired metamaterials and structures exhibit extraordinary properties, including
programmable Poisson's ratio and tunable stiffness. Although some research has achieved …

In this article, effective properties of Miura-ori patterned sheets are studied. The thickness of
the facets is allowed to have considerably large values; hence, the structural response of the …

The on-demand control of supratransmission is of fundamental importance for practical
applications in areas such as energy transmission. The occurrence of supratransmission is …

This study involved the design of energy absorbing structures that have precisely tailored
performances based on the differences between the bifurcated motions of a Tachi-Miura …

Origami metamaterials exhibit abnormal mechanical properties through artful structural
design. To further explore the mechanical behavior of reentrant metamaterials, a multi …
