Topological Elasticity of Flexible Structures
Flexible mechanical metamaterials possess repeating structural motifs that imbue them with novel, exciting properties including programmability, anomalous elastic moduli, and nonlinear and robust response. We address such structures via micromorphic continuum elasticity, which allows highly nonunifo...
