Check out our new paper on Kuttsukigami: Sticky Sheet Design with Andrew Croll @crollab!
We use adhesion to sculpt thin sheets in a broad range of materials for a versatile and reconfigurable thin-sheet engineering design scheme.
See it in @softmatter and featured on the cover!
Very excited to see Tim and Ravi's visuals on the @softmatter cover! Check out our article if you are interested in our ideas for sticky sheets. A really fun collaboration between @ndsu and @SMSLaboratory@VirginiaTech_ME.
Great to visit and give a seminar in Mechanical Engineering at Virginia Tech today! Fantastic discussions with students and faculty, including my host Michael Bartlett @SMSLaboratory
