Soft kirigami composites for form-finding of fully flexible deployables
Jan Zavodnik, Yunbo Wang, Wenzhong Yan +2
We introduce a new class of thin flexible structures that morph from a flat shape into prescribed 3D shapes without an external stimulus such as mechanical loads or heat. To achiev…

Method of image charges for describing linear deformation of bounded 2D solid structures with circular holes and inclusions
Siddhartha Sarkar, Matjaz Cebron, Miha Brojan +1
We present a method for predicting the linear response deformation of finite and semi-infinite 2D solid structures with circular holes and inclusions by employing the analogies wit…

Elastic multipole method for describing linear deformation of infinite 2D solid structures with circular holes and inclusions
Siddhartha Sarkar, Matjaz Cebron, Miha Brojan +1
Elastic materials with holes and inclusions are important in a large variety of contexts ranging from construction material to biological membranes. More recently, they have also b…
