Five self-published origami textbooks by Shuzo Fujimoto, who invented many origami with geometric patterns and is world-famous among origami enthusiasts, have been released in the public domain with ...

Researchers are looking the 'hypar' origami for ways to leverage its structural properties. While perhaps not as iconic as the paper crane, the hypar origami with its sweeping opposing arcs and saddle ...

Origami-based structures have been used to create deployable solar arrays for space, adaptable acoustic systems for symphony halls and even crash protection systems for flying drones. Now researchers ...

Dating back to the early Islamic period, these designs were developed using a set of mathematical principles. Islamic art was characterized by utilizing geometric patterns in a distinct manner owing ...

Many of us could happily fold a paper crane, yet few feel confident solving an equation like x³ – 3 x² – x + 3 = 0, to find a value for x. Both activities, however, share similar skills: precision, ...

Professor Uehara from JAIST works at the intersection of theoretical computer science, discrete mathematics, and the art of solving puzzles. His research strives to understand the computational ...

Jackson isn't a scientist, but he is aware of the many places that folds appear in nature, from DNA and vital proteins, to geometric folding that changes the space we live in. Jackson is one of a ...

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 - Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. Designing materials that adapt to their surroundings, respond to stimuli, and change shape ...

While perhaps not as iconic as the paper crane, the hypar origami with its sweeping opposing arcs and saddle shape has long been popular for artists working in the paper folding tradition. Now ...
