Double network(DN)hydrogels are composed of two interpenetrating polymer networks with absorbed water,which show very large deformability,high strength and
The mechanics of the formation and propagation of ridges on compressed stiff film/compliant substrate systems is studied theoretically and experimentally.
Folded structures arise in a variety of natural objects including insect wings,leaves,and petals as well as engineering structures like Miura-Ori,pleated ro
The prospect of structures that can adopt pre-designed forms as a result of external stimuli has been a long-standing engineering and technological goal.
