A Review of Trans‐Dimensional Kirigami: From Compliant Mechanism to Multifunctional Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review outlines recent advancements in the geometric design and mechanical properties of kirigami. The kirigami is classified into two categories from a compliant mechanism perspective, highlighting their applications in metamaterials and robotic systems. Finally, the future research directions, is explored focusing on the potential of integrating

Using stability analysis of discrete elastic systems to study the buckling of nanostructures

Archives of Mechanics, 2012
Stubility/instability criteria of discrete elastic systems are used to study the buckling of nanostructures. The deformation of nanostructures is simulated by solving the nonlinear equations of molecular mechanics.

Limiting Safety‐Critical Structural Damage in Recovery‐Based Seismic Design Provisions

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
In the move toward design practices that facilitate recovery, there are ongoing efforts to reevaluate structural seismic design parameters such as design drift limits and response modification coefficients. To support the development of the 2026 NEHRP functional recovery design provisions, we propose design modifications that limit the occurrence of ...

On the Damage Tolerance of Diffusion Bonded Titanium–Aluminum Phase Biomimetic Composites

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The biomimetic design principles of natural structures involve the strategic integration of stiff and compliant phases to synergistically enhance strength and toughness. Its evolutionary refined natural armor, characterized by a specialized microarchitecture, enables superior damage tolerance.

Semi-classical buckling of stiff polymers

, 2007
A quantitative theory of the buckling of a worm like chain based on a semi-classical approximation of the partition function is presented. The contribution of thermal fluctuations to the force-extension relation that allows to go beyond the classical ...

Rippling Instabilities in Suspended Nanoribbons

, 2011
Morphology mediates the interplay between the structure and electronic transport in atomically thin nanoribbons such as graphene as the relaxation of edge stresses occurs preferentially via out-of-plane deflections. In the case of end-supported suspended
