Kavli Affiliate: Chiara Daraio | First 5 Authors: Connor McMahan, Andrew Akerson, Paolo Celli, Basile Audoly, Chiara Daraio | Summary: In this work, we construct an effective continuum model for architected sheets that are composed of bulky tiles connected by slender elastic joints. Due to their mesostructure, these sheets feature quasi-mechanisms — low-energy local kinematic […]
