Stochastic elastohydrodynamics of soft valves
Mengfei He, Sungkyu Cho, Gianna Dafflisio +2
Soft valves serve to modulate and rectify flows in complex vasculatures across the tree of life, e.g. in the heart of every human reading this. Here we consider a minimal physical…

Additive design of 2-dimensional scissor lattices
Noah Toyonaga, L Mahadevan
We introduce an additive approach for the design of a class of transformable structures based on two-bar linkages ("scissor mechanisms") joined at vertices to form a two dimensiona…
