A Palm-Shape Variable-Stiffness Gripper based on 3D-Printed Fabric Jamming
Yuchen Zhao, Yifan Wang
Soft grippers have excellent adaptability for a variety of objects and tasks. Jamming-based variable stiffness materials can further increase soft grippers' gripping force and capa…
Microscopic Reversibility and Emergent Elasticity in Ultrastable Granular Systems
Yiqiu Zhao, Yuchen Zhao, Dong Wang +3
In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. X 12, 031021], we reported experimental observations of ``ultrastable'' states in a shear-jammed granular system subjected to small-amplitude cyclic s…
Ultra-stable shear jammed granular material
Yiqiu Zhao, Yuchen Zhao, Dong Wang +3
Dry granular materials such as sand, gravel, pills, or agricultural grains, can become rigid when compressed or sheared. At low density, one can distort the shape of a container of…
Yielding, Rigidity, and Tensile Stress in Sheared Columns of Hexapod Granules
Yuchen Zhao, Jonathan Barés, Joshua E. S. Socolar
Granular packings of non-convex or elongated particles can form free-standing structures like walls or arches. For some particle shapes, such as staples, the rigidity arises from i…
