Inflating to Shape: From Sheets to 3D Structures

Description

This lecture by Prof. José Bico explores the transformation of planar sheets into 3D structures through strategies like wrinkles, differential growth, and non-isotropic actuation. The presentation covers various research groups' work on inflatable patches, tube actuation, and reverse engineering challenges in direct printing and target surface optimization.
