Invariant and smooth limit of discrete geometry folded from bistable origami leading to multistable metasurfaces
The mechanisms behind origami having saddle shapes made from concentrically pleated squares remain elusive. Here, the authors connect geometry and mechanics to show that this type of origami is invariantly a hyperbolic paraboloid that exhibits bistability between two symmetric configurations.
