Hydrogel-driven origami metamaterials for tunable swelling behavior

Origami metamaterial has gradually shown its potential in the fields of science and engineering due to its unique mechanical behaviors. Since hydrogel shows a positive volume change when absorbing water, it provides a new design strategy for actively deformed origami metamaterials composed of normal...
