Twist-coupled Kirigami cells and mechanisms

Manipulation of thin sheets by folding and cutting offers opportunity to engineer structures with novel mechanical properties, and to prescribe complex force-displacement relationships via material elasticity in combination with the trajectory imposed by the fold pattern. Here we study the mechanics...
