Design and fabrication of proposed method using three types of programmable deformations with Turing patterns: C-shaped and S-shaped bending, and twisting behaviors after inflation. (a) Setting of size, objective functions, boundary conditions, and FEM meshes; (b) Deformed configurations after orientation optimization; (c) Continuous distribution of optimized material orientations; (d) Generated Turing patterns; (e) Experimental implementation using heat-bonding; (f) Experimental implementation using embroidery.
