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

Origami structures have the advantages of foldability and adjustability, with applications
spanning numerous engineering fields. However, there remains a dearth of intelligent and …

This paper proposes a novel single-degree-of-freedom (single-DOF) modular thick-panel
deployable structure (MTDS) based on the single-vertex four-crease and single-vertex six …

The thin-walled lattice metamaterials are usually applied into the energy absorption, and the
low-weight and high-bearing components. In this paper, a novel kind of open-section …

This work aimed to investigate the compressive and shape recovery performance of the 3D
printed shape-memory corrugated tubes (SMCTs). The structures were manufactured by …

In this paper, the influence of different material trademarks, mass ratios, the melt mass‐flow
rate (MMFR) and molecular weights (MW), mold and injection temperatures, Al2O3 powder …

In this paper, we introduced a new cylindrical flexible structure incorporating a multi-story
origami based on the Miura-Ori pattern and mathematized kinematics. Our experiments …

In order to improve the low structural strength of single-ring truss deployable mechanism
with large aperture, a double-ring truss deployable mechanism (DRTDM) based on …

In this paper, a novel synthesis approach based on graph theory is proposed. This approach
can be used to design the creases of origami mechanisms. All possible contracted graphs of …

In this paper, a novel framework is proposed for the structural analysis of large origami
structures. The first order shear deformation theory of plates (FSDT) is employed to consider …
