Euclidean Frustrated Ribbons
Emmanuel Siéfert, Ido Levin, Eran Sharon
Geometrical frustration in thin sheets is ubiquitous across scales in biology and becomes increasingly relevant in technology. Previous research identified the origin of the frustr…

Hierarchy of Geometrical Frustration in Elastic Ribbons: shape-transitions and energy scaling obtained from a general asymptotic theory
Ido Levin, Emmanuel Siéfert, Eran Sharon +1
Geometrically frustrated elastic ribbons exhibit, in many cases, significant changes in configuration depending on the relation between their width and thickness. We show that the…

Oscillating membranes: modeling and controlling autonomous shape-transforming sheets
Ido Levin, Robert Deegan, Eran Sharon
Living organisms have mastered the dynamic control of internal stresses to perform an array of functions, such as change shape and locomote. State-of-the-art attempts to replicate…
