Continuous and Discrete Deformation Modes of Mechanical Metamaterials With Ring-Like Unit Cells

Structures with multiple deformation paths provide a promising platform for robotics and reprogrammable mechanical and thermal deformation materials. Reconfigurations with a multi-path can fulfill many tasks (e.g., walking and grasping) and possess multiple properties (e.g., targeted Poisson’s ratio...
