Journal ArticleDOI
Flexible mechanical metamaterials
TL;DR: In this article, the design principles leading to these properties are identified and discussed, in particular, linear and mechanism-based metamaterials (such as origami-based and kirigami based metammaterials), harnessing instabilities and frustration, and topological and nonlinear metam materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Programmable Mechanical Metamaterials
TL;DR: A soft mechanism model is introduced which captures the programmable mechanics, and a general design strategy for confined mechanical metamaterials is outlined, showing how inhomogeneous confinement can be explored to create multistability and giant hysteresis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combinatorial design of textured mechanical metamaterials
Corentin Coulais,Corentin Coulais,Eial Teomy,Koen de Reus,Yair Shokef,Martin van Hecke,Martin van Hecke +6 more
TL;DR: This work introduces a combinatorial strategy for the design of aperiodic, yet frustration-free, mechanical metamaterials that exhibit spatially textured functionalities and shows their mechanical response to compression by a textured surface reveals their ability to perform sensing and pattern analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origami multistability: from single vertices to metasheets.
TL;DR: It is shown how to program the stability features of a single vertex into a periodic fold tessellation, and the resulting metasheets provide a previously unanticipated functionality-tunable and switchable shape and size via multistability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear Bands in Matter with Granularity
Peter Schall,Martin van Hecke +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the main mechanisms that cause shear banding in complex fluids with granularity are discussed, such as foams, emulsions, colloidal suspensions, and granular matter.
