Snap-induced morphing: from a single bistable shell to the origin of shape bifurcation in interacting shells

The bistability of embedded elements provides a natural route through which to introduce reprogrammability to elastic meta-materials. One example of this is the soft morphable sheet, in which bistable elements that can be snapped up or down, are embedded within a soft sheet. The state of the sheet c...
