- Description
- Shape constrains and enables function across scales. But how can we design and control shape, i.e. solve the basic inverse problems in physical geometry. I will discuss our work in this area that focuses on 3 different paradigms: (i) using origami to fold flat sheets into curved surfaces, (ii) using kirigami to reshape planar domains and tile arbitrary surfaces, (iii) using biomimetic 3D and 4D printing combined with designer metrics that allow us to “grow” a flat surface into a complex 3D shape such as a flower or a face.
