Algorithmic Lattice Kirigami: A Route to Pluripotent Materials
Daniel M. Sussman, Yigil Cho, Toen Castle +4
We use a regular arrangement of kirigami elements to demonstrate an inverse design paradigm for folding a flat surface into complex target configurations. We first present a scheme…

Making the Cut: Lattice Kirigami Rules
Toen Castle, Yigil Cho, Xingting Gong +4
In this paper we explore and develop a simple set of rules that apply to cutting, pasting, and folding honeycomb lattices. We consider origami-like structures that are extinsically…
