Capillary folding is the process of folding planar objects into three-dimensional (3-D)
structures using capillary force. It has many important industrial applications, eg the …

We consider the capillary folding of thin elastic sheets with pinned contact lines in three
dimensions. The folding occurs due to the interaction between the elastic sheet and a …

We develop a three-dimensional model for capillary origami systems in which a rectangular
plate has finite thickness, is allowed to stretch and undergoes small deflections. This latter …

We describe a global approach to the problem of capillary origami that captures all unfolded
equilibrium configurations in the two-dimensional setting where the drop is not required to …

Motivated by recent elasto-capillary experiments done in the context of capillary origami, we
model the static elastic deformations of a thin sheet due to the surface tension of a liquid …

Defined mathematically as critical points of surface area subject to a volume constraint,
constant mean curvatures (CMC) surfaces are idealizations of interfaces occurring between …

Standard predictions induced by the balance of surface tension and pressure dictate that
static soap bubbles must be spherical. However, definite non-spherical shapes appear in …
