The folding of origami structures involves bending deformations that are not explicit in the crease pattern. Silverberg and co-authors found that to properly model the folding of the square-twist ...

A versatile origami fold could be the key to creating just about any structure, from the nanoscale to full-scale buildings, according to new engineering research out this week. A team at Harvard says ...

The amplituhedron, a shape at the heart of particle physics, appears to be deeply connected to the mathematics of paper folding. The amplituhedron is a geometric shape with an almost mystical quality: ...

Long before screens and styluses, entertainment came in the form of folded paper. One square. No cuts. No glue. Just folds. That’s all it took to create animals, flowers, boats, and birds that felt ...
