Abstract: Abstract In this work, through the use of Molecular Dynamics simulations, we show the capability of different mechanical metamaterials to induce their own global rotational motion as a result of an internal deformation. We also… read more here.

Abstract: In this work, we propose the concept that a device based on mechanical metamaterials can be used to induce and control its own rotational motion as a result of internal deformations due to the conversion… read more here.
