Dynamic driving enables independent control of material bits for targeted memory
E. Gutierrez-Prieto, C. M. Meulblok, M. van Hecke +1
Mechanical metamaterials with bistable elements can store vast amounts of information, but writing these memories requires impractical local control or lengthy multi-cycle protocol…
Accelerated snapping of slender beams under lateral forcing
Colin M. Meulblok, Hadrien Bense, M. Caelen +1
The hysteretic snapping under lateral forcing of a compressed, buckled beam is fundamental for many devices and mechanical metamaterials. For a single-tip lateral pusher, an import…
Transients and multiperiodic responses: a hierarchy of material bits
Colin M. Meulblok, Martin van Hecke
When cyclically driven, certain disordered materials exhibit transient and multiperiodic responses that are difficult to reproduce in synthetic materials. Here, we show that elemen…
