  • Here Rocklinet al. propose a design principle using operations that cost little energy and realize mechanical metamaterials that can be easily and reversibly transformed between states with different mechanical and acoustic properties.

  • The authors investigate the mechanical behavior of origami tessellations composed of trapezoid faces, which are more general but less studied compared to parallelogram faces. They develop analytical expressions for the deformation modes and test the model’s validity through laboratory scale experiments.

  • Topological phases are challenging to identify in systems with general, strong nonlinearities. Here, the authors establish the analytic methodology that defines the topological invariant of nonlinear normal modes. Strongly nonlinear topological boundary modes are guaranteed by the nontrivial topological index.

  • Explanation is still lacking for the exotic nonlinear, nonuniform deformation of mechanism-based materials. Here the authors present an analytical framework for a canonical mechanism that can not only predict, but also precisely control deformation in these materials.
