Design and characterization of hybrid metamaterials including bistable architectures
Design structures that combine bistable and non-bistable architectures and evaluate them under bending and twist loading conditions.
1. Computational design of the hybrid structures
2. Run FE simulations to characterize their elastic response under bending and twist.
4. Adjust design parameters to obtain the structure-property relation.
5. Additively manufacture samples and test experimentally.
