Exploring multistability in prismatic metamaterials through local actuation

Exploring multistability in prismatic metamaterials through local actuation

So far, mostly 2D building blocks have been used to make origami-type multistable metamaterials that can keep their shape when deformed. Here, the authors introduce a local actuation strategy to explore the energy landscape of multistable metamaterials fabricated from 3D prismatic building blocks.
