    Rigidity of many origami structures can be controlled by facet planarity

    What the study found The study found that the rigidity of many origami structures can be controlled by making selected facets planar or allowing them to relax. The authors also report that geometry, topology, and facet-selection rules affect how many degrees of freedom these structures have and when rigidity changes occur. Why the authors say…
