Movie link | Screenshots | Description |
---|---|---|
Vertex branches | This movie shows the two branches of allowed motions of a particular four-fold vertex. | |
Bistable vertex | This movie shows the configurations of a bistable vertex. | |
Minima reduction | This movie shows the configurations of a monostable vertex, achieved via tweaking a bistable system so that one of the minima lies at the branching point at the flat state. | |
Tiled metasheet | This movie shows a tiled metasheet -- the two branches of allowed motions correspond to the formation of vertical ridges or horizontal ridges. |
