Development of self-folding origami sensors through the use of resistance, capacitance, and inductance
… for printable sensors through the use of self-folding, conductive origami. Using Miyashita's technique for self-folding origami through global heat application, a several sensors were designed and fabricated. A variable resistor design can detect compression via shorting between tiles (thereby …

Design and feedback control of self-folding untethered miniature origami robots
… robot. The idea of magnetically-controlled, self-folding origami robots has been proposed to enable universal robot construction on this scale. This thesis continues the investigation into miniature magnetic origami robots by exploring specifically the design and control of such robots. We detail …

Flexural Mechanics of Creased Thin Metallic Strips
The introduction of creases into thin sheets has a dramatic effect on their global mechanical properties. This can be observed by manipulating a crumpled piece of paper which has been unfolded; it no longer deforms in the same way as the original sheet. Creases have typically been modelled as …
