...Evandro Bernardes; Stéphane Viollet This article presents a soft cylindrical multistable origami structure based on “bendy straws,” consisting of multiple conical frusta mimicking the structure of a flexible drinking straw. These frusta are connected in such a way that the whole structure...

...Guanglu Jia; Hailin Huang; Hongwei Guo; Bing Li; Jian S. Dai Design strategies for foldable mechanisms have been developed with inspiration from origami. In this study, we investigate a new direction that blocks are folded in a way that origami folds as the ori-blocks to generate a new type...

...Yao Chen; Jiayi Yan; Jian Feng; Pooya Sareh Flat-foldable origami tessellations are periodic geometric designs that can be transformed from an initial configuration into a flat-folded state. There is growing interest in such tessellations, as they have inspired many innovations in various fields...
