Programming Soft Robots with Flexible Mechanical Metamaterials

Ahmad Rafsanjani, Katia Bertoldi, André R. Studart

The complex behavior of highly deformable mechanical metamaterials can substantially enhance the performance of soft robots.

Self-sustained lift and low friction via soft lubrication

Baudouin Saintyves, Théo Jules, Thomas Salez +1

Relative motion between soft wet solids arises in a number of applications in natural and artificial settings, and invariably couples elastic deformation and fluid flow. We explore…

Optimal control of plate shape with incompatible strain fields

Gareth Wyn Jones, L. Mahadevan

A flat plate can bend into a curved surface if it experiences an inhomogeneous growth field. In this article a method is described that numerically determines the optimal growth fi…

Digital instability of a confined elastic meniscus

John S. Biggins, Baudouin Saintyves, Zhiyan Wei +2

Thin soft elastic layers serving as joints between relatively rigid bodies may function as sealants, thermal, electrical, or mechanical insulators, bearings, or adhesives. When suc…

Dynamic instability of a growing adsorbed polymorphic filament

Stefano Zapperi, L. Mahadevan

The intermittent transition between slow growth and rapid shrinkage in polymeric assemblies is termed dynamic instability, a feature observed in a variety of biochemically distinct…
