Modeling and computation of the effective elastic behavior of parallelogram origami metamaterials
Hu Xu, Frederic Marazzato, Paul Plucinsky
Origami metamaterials made of repeating unit cells of parallelogram panels joined at folds dramatically change their shape through a collective motion of their cells. Here we devel…

Derivation of an effective plate theory for parallelogram origami from bar and hinge elasticity
Hu Xu, Ian Tobasco, Paul Plucinsky
Periodic origami patterns made with repeating unit cells of creases and panels bend and twist in complex ways. In principle, such soft modes of deformation admit a simplified asymp…
