Novel insight into the “Sareh twist” suggests that this mechanism underlying origami tessellations could become a key element in the design of origami-inspired structures for science and engineering ...

A study published in Nature Communications presents a way to create deployable structures that transform from compact folded states into expansive configurations with perfectly smooth surfaces.

Kiri-origami structures combine the benefits of both origami and kirigami, incorporating their advantages while canceling their disadvantages, enabling the development of high-performance, stretchable ...

Researchers recently shared details on creating foldable, self-locking structures by using multi-material 3D printing. These origami-inspired designs can transition between flat and three-dimensional ...

DNA origami and beyond. A) DNA octahedron that inspired development of DNA origami. B) 2D DNA origami (smiley face serves as an example). C) Hollow 3D DNA origami shapes that are folded from 2D ...

The rapid advancements in satellite technology have been inextricably bound up with the support provided by sophisticated space folding mechanisms. In addition, with the rapid progression of space ...
