Programming the Energy Landscape of 3D-Printed Kresling Origami via Crease Geometry and Viscosity
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study focuses on investigating modifications to the energy landscape induced by changes in crease geometrical parameters, addressing the effects of viscoelasticity in the creases. The latter aspect is investigated using different rubbery materials with varying relaxation moduli. Considering the limitations of manufacturing techniques, we also provide design insights for crease geometry and distribution, along with photopolymers suitable for fabricating both multi- and monomaterial bistable cells, at both micro- and macro- scales.
