Shape-morphing architected sheets with non-periodic cut patterns
Shape-morphing architected sheets with non-periodic cut patterns
We investigate the out-of-plane shape morphing capability of single-material elastic sheets with architected cut patterns that result in arrays of tiles connected by flexible hinges. We demonstrate that a non-periodic cut pattern can cause a sheet to buckle into three-dimensional shapes, such as domes or patterns of wrinkles, when pulled …
