“…Origami lattices are a prototypical metamaterial, readily converting an unwieldy film into a robust device capable of reliable and simple actuation [1]. A remarkably small fraction of a sheet is deformed when it is creased, but the mere existence of a crease dramatically changes its deformation modes.…”

Origami folded cylinders (origami bellows) have found increasingly sophisticated applications in space flight and medicine. In spite of this interest, a general understanding of the mechanics of an origami folded cylinder has been elusive. With a newly developed set of geometrical tools, we have found an analytic solution for all possible cylindrical rigid-face states of both Miura-ori and triangular tessellations. Although an idealized bellows in both of these families may have two allowed rigid-face configurations over a well-defined region, the corresponding physical device, limited by nonzero material thickness and forced to balance hinge and plate-bending energy, often cannot stably maintain a stowed configuration. We have identified the parameters that control this emergent bistability, and have demonstrated the ability to design and fabricate bellows with tunable deployability.

“…The basic ingredient of the proposed origami structure (OS) is an origami sheet that can be folded into exceptionally rich shapes by carefully designing its crease pattern [30][31][32][33][34][35][36], and is composed of inclusions attached either on the facets or vertices of the sheet (Fig. 1).…”

We introduce a framework of utilizing origami folding to redistribute the inclusions of a phononic structure to achieve significant phononic bandgap adaptation. Cylindrical inclusions are attached to the vertices of Miura-Ori sheet, whose one degree-of-freedom rigid-folding can enable fundamental reconfigurations in the underlying periodic architecture via switching between different Bravais lattice-types. Such reconfiguration can drastically change the wave propagation behavior in terms of bandgap and provide a scalable and practical means for broadband wave tailoring.

“…However, the abstract idea of folding techniques emerged recently [7], which was also called origami in Japan. The association between origami and mathematics is profound and insightful, hence with the rapid development of computer science, computation geometry folding techniques emerged as a new theoretical field in the last decades.…”

“…Rigid folding is when all the deformation is concentrated in the hinges and the faces between the folds remain flat [7]. For architectural considerations, standard plane materials are important and effective.…”

In recent years, folding techniques are widely used by many architects to make 3D forms from 2D sheets as an inspiration for their design, which enables simpler and more intuitive solutions for architectural realization. This research provides an overview of using folding techniques in architecture design, with an emphasis on their new applications. In this overview, we classify folding techniques as computation geometry folding techniques and manual folding techniques. Finally, we provide recommendations for future development.
