Origami-inspired mechanical metamaterials
… but their performances are often limited by the flat foldable unit cells. This thesis introduces a novel concept of heterogeneous origami-inspired mechanical metamaterial and investigates how disrupting flat-foldability, by introducing structural heterogeneity, can lead to performance …

Sliceforms: Deployable structures from interlocking slices
… as revolute joints, and the sliceform is foldable if the geometry of the embedded spatial linkage permits it, for example a lattice sliceform (LS) is bi-directionally flat-foldable. This thesis concerns a study of such sliceforms toward the design of novel deployable structures. A …

Map folding
… creases, each marked mountain or valley-has a flat folded state. This problem has remained open since then, even for the 2 x n case. This thesis presents several theoretical contributions to this problem. Most significantly, it presents an O(n⁹ ) time algorithm for deciding the flat foldability …
