DOI: 10.1002/adfm.202421638
Abstract: Multistable architected materials are proposed as promising candidates for shock absorption, wave guiding, and shape transformation. However, current design strategies typically rely on one‐off unit cell designs with limited stable states, arranged in periodic tessellations.… read more here.
