Abstract

En 中文
Developable surfaces based on closed-shape, planar, rotationally symmetric kirigami (RSK) sheets approximate 3D, globally curved surfaces upon (reversible) out-of-plane deflection. The distribution of stress and strain across the structure is characterized experimentally and by finite-element analysis as a function of the material and cut parameters, enabling the integration with strain gauges to produce a wearable, conformal patch that can capture complex, multiaxis motion. Using the patch, real-time tracking of shoulder joint and muscle behavior is demonstrated. The facile fabrication and unique properties of the RSK structures potentially enable wearable, textile-integrated joint monitoring for athletic training, wellness, rehabilitation, feedback control for augmented mobility, motion of soft and traditional robotics, and other applications.
