Physics‐Informed Neural Network‐Enabled Forward Prediction and Inverse Design of Ring Origami

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a KRT‐PINN framework that integrates Kirchhoff rod theory with physics‐informed neural networks for the forward prediction and inverse design of ring origami consisting of closed‐loop rods. The framework predicts stable states of segmented rings with prescribed natural‐curvature profiles and determines the natural‐curvature profiles ...

From Folding Mechanics to Robotic Function: A Unified Modeling Framework for Compliant Origami

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A geometry‐consistent DDG framework captures compliant origami deformation from rigid‐like folding to soft panel bending. By tuning crease and panel stiffness, bistable snap‐through responses transform into smooth monostable deformation, enabling programmable stability and robot‐scale locomotion.

A Rigid–Foldable Kirigami‐Inspired Metamorphic Mechanism With Programmable Motion Modes and Self‐Locking

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Geometric constraint reconfiguration enables a rigid–foldable kirigami‐inspired mechanism to switch between twisting, directional translation, and self‐locking states. By encoding multifunctionality directly into its architecture, the mechanism achieves multimodal motion and passive locking without reassembly, providing a compact platform for adaptive ...

Influence of preparation parameters on the torsion performance and failure mechanisms of CFRP tubes

e-Polymers
Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are promising materials for tubular structures in wind energy systems. Although their torsional behavior has been widely studied, the coupled influence of diameter and ply orientation under different loading rates

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.
