Reconfigurable kirigami mesostructure enables modulation of lift and drag
Agathe Schmider, Tom Marzin, Sophie Ramananarivo
Flexible surfaces can modulate fluid forces through deformation, enabling passive adaptation to flow conditions. Here we show that kirigami sheets, planar surfaces patterned with a…
The physics of crêpes: Elasto-gravity control of soft folding
Tom Marzin, Barath Venkateswaran, Yuchen Xi +2
Like a crêpe resting on a plate, a thin elastic sheet can fold smoothly under its own weight, forming reversible shapes without creases or imposed hinges. Such soft folds arise fro…
Building granular structures with elasto-active systems
Yuchen Xi, Tom Marzin, P. -T. Brun
Natural active systems routinely reshape and reorganize their environments through sustained local interactions. Examples of decentralized collective construction are common in nat…
Morpho-plastic cellular metamaterials
Victor Charpentier, Ignacio Andrade-Silva, Trevor J. Jones +4
Deployable structures, essential across various engineering applications ranging from umbrellas to satellites, are evolving to include soft, morphable designs where geometry drives…
Augmented snap-through instability of folded strips
Tom Marzin, Barath Venkateswaran, Thomas Baroux +1
Bistability and snap-through instabilities are central to various mechanisms in nature and engineering, enabling rapid movement and large shape changes with minimal energy input. T…
Emergent intelligence of buckling-driven elasto-active structures
Yuchen Xi, Trevor J. Jones, Richard Huang +2
Active systems of self-propelled agents, e.g., birds, fish, and bacteria, can organize their collective motion into myriad autonomous behaviors. Ubiquitous in nature and across len…
