One of the fundamental characteristics of additively processed materials is that they are
naturally anisotropic; this variance in mechanical properties is primarily generated through …

Origami-based structures have gained interest in recent years due to their potential to
develop lattice materials, called metamaterials, the mechanics of which are primarily driven …

Constant-force mechanisms (CFMs) can produce an almost invariant output force over a
limited range of input displacement. Without using additional sensor and force controller …

Automated inverse design methods are critical to the development of metamaterial systems
that exhibit special user-demanded properties. While machine learning approaches …

Multidirectional monitoring is highly expectable for stretchable strain sensors by which the
randomly orientated cracks or the maximum strain of all directions need to be …

The present study addresses a multiscale and stochastic design approach for polycrystalline
microstructures to achieve a zone of isotropic elastic properties to improve the predictability …

Motivated by heat dissipation, the rigid-compliant hybrid cellular expansion mechanisms
with motion amplification and superposition are proposed in this paper. Compared with …
