, multi-storey) self-folding origami-inspired structures that works on the basis of bilayers of permanently deforming kirigami elements and an elastic layer. Global mechanical forces activate the self-folding behavior. Given the highly mechanical nature of these elements, they could be made from a ...
tapered panels23, offset panels27, hinge shifting28,29, and so on. However, most of the thick-panel origami structures were manufactured by tedious manual assembly processes such as using adhesive tapes27,30 or rolling hinges31,32 to connect thick panels, which are not favorable for real ...

We describe the design and fabrication of miniaturized origami structures based on thin-film shape memory alloys. These devices are attractive for medical implants, as they overcome the opposing requirements of crimping the implant for insertion into an artery while keeping sensitive parts of the impla...
In addition to carrying a large load, this system—known as the Modular and Uniformly Thick Origami-Inspired Structure system—can adapt its shapes to become bridges, walls, floors, columns and many other structures. More information:Yi Zhu et al, Large-scale modular and uniformly thick origami...
