Compact reconfigurable kirigami
Gary P. T. Choi, Levi H. Dudte, L. Mahadevan
Kirigami involves cutting a flat, thin sheet that allows it to morph from a closed, compact configuration into an open deployed structure via coordinated rotations of the internal…

Deterministic and stochastic control of kirigami topology
Siheng Chen, Gary P. T. Choi, L. Mahadevan
Kirigami, the creative art of paper cutting, is a promising paradigm for mechanical metamaterials. However, to make kirigami-inspired structures a reality requires controlling the…

Programming shape using kirigami tessellations
Gary P. T. Choi, Levi H. Dudte, L. Mahadevan
Kirigami tessellations, regular planar patterns formed by cutting flat, thin sheets, have attracted recent scientific interest for their rich geometries, surprising material proper…
