# gst: complexity of a flat-foldings random origami

AA << give the result of approximate enumeration of the total number of flat-foldings of single-vertex origami diagram with random width of angles gathering around the central vertex, and obtain its size dependence for an asymptotic prediction towards the limit of infinite size. >>️

<< In addition, an outlook with respect to the chained determination of local stacking orders of facets caused by the constraint that prohibits the penetration of them is also provided from the viewpoint of organizing the terms included in the physical model. A method to efficiently solve the problem of the determination or enumeration of flat-foldings is discussed based on the above perspectives. >>️

# gst: kirigami exposed to external flows.

<< Kirigami patterned materials have found several applications in recent years due to their ability to assume complicated shapes and exhibit emergent physical properties when exposed to external forces. >>️

<< Consisting of an array of cuts in a thin material, fabrication of these patterns can be quite simple. Here (AA) show that when they are placed in fluid flow, kirigami cut sheets with various patterns produce a verity of flow patterns in the wake. Through several sets of experiments, (AA) show that the kirigami sheets placed in flow can undergo static or dynamic flow-induced instabilities as a result of which they can buckle or undergo limit cycle oscillations, or they can remain stable while undergoing very large elongations. >>️

<< The ability to create controlled small-scale vortex shedding, induce desired flow-induced instabilities on structures, and form specifically-angled jets will enable several future applications in flow mixing (e.g., by producing small vortices in uniform flow at low Reynolds numbers), flow control (e.g., by controlling the direction and the number of jets that are produced downstream), and underwater soft robotics (e.g., by imposing desired flow-induced oscillations on structures). >>

# gst: shape-shifting architecture inspired by metamorphosis, the metamorphosis kirigami system.

<< Kirigami is a variation of origami that involves cutting and folding paper. But while kirigami traditionally uses two-dimensional materials, Yin (Jie Yin) applies the same principles to three-dimensional materials. The metamorphosis system starts with a single unit of 3D kirigami. Each unit can form multiple shapes in itself. But these units are also modular—they can be connected to form increasingly complex structures. Because the individual units themselves can form multiple shapes, and can connect to other units in multiple ways, the overall system is capable of forming a wide variety of architectures. >>

<< The system we've developed was inspired by metamorphosis, (..) With metamorphosis in nature, animals change their fundamental shape. We've created a class of materials that can be used to create structures that change their fundamental architecture. (..) Think of what you can build with conventional materials, (..) Now imagine what you can build when each basic building block is capable of transforming in multiple ways.  (..) The metamorphosis kirigami system does not allow you to disassemble a structure, (..) And because the sides of each cubic unit are rigid and fixed at 90-degree angles, the assembled structure does not bend or flex very much. However, the finished structure is capable of transforming into different architectures.>> Jie Yin.️
