摘要
En 中文
Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) is a type of soft active material that generates large and reversible spontaneous deformations upon temperature changes, facilitating various environmentally responsive smart applications. Despite their success, most existing LCE metamaterials are designed in a forward fashion based on intuition and feature regular material patterns, which may hinder the reach of LCE's full potential in producing complex and desired functionalities. Here, we develop a computational inverse design framework for discovering diverse sophisticated temperature-activated and -interactive nonlinear behaviors for LCE metamaterials in a fully controllable fashion. We generate intelligent LCE metamaterials with a wide range of switchable functionalities upon temperature changes. By sensing the environment, these metamaterials can realize maximized spontaneous area expansion/contraction, precisely programmable enclosed opening size change, and temperature-switchable nonlinear stress-strain relations and deformation modes. The optimized unit cells feature irregular LCE patterns and form complex and highly nonlinear mechanisms. The inverse design computational framework, optimized material patterns, and revealed underlying mechanisms fundamentally advance the design capacity of LCE metamaterials, benefiting environment-aware and -adaptive smart materials.
