We present a novel, rigidly folding vertex inspired by the shape of the simplest hanging drape. Fold lines in the vertex correspond to pleats and ridges in the drape, and are symmetrically arranged to enable synchronised at folding of facet pairs. We

A foldable cone, or f-cone, is a discrete vertex folded from flat with curved faces, and is an exemplar of nonrigid origami. We determine the exact equilibrium shape of a well-folded symmetrical f-cone by geometrical considerations alone, by treating

A rotational sliceform (RS) forms a stiff, ringlike array of intersecting planar slices. Removing a few slices and disconnecting the ends of an RS enables the incomplete array to be collapsed scissorlike into a compact stack; it can be expanded smoot

The bistable composite tape-spring (CTS) structure has received increasing interest in industrial applications, especially in aerospace engineering. Its ability to fold under large displacements makes it attractive as a hinge-safety assembly, with re

The art form of kirigami has recently attracted interest from engineers and scientists for generating complex three-dimensional structures from flat sheet-like materials. When thin metal sheets are used, the deformation can become plastic and localiz

The shape of a vertex roof is defined by the geometry of its constituent flat facets and the relative angle of folding across them. The spherical image of the roof, originally from Gauss, expresses these properties simultaneously. We present a method

A ridge-spring is a thin-walled bent strip with flat side panels. It may be folded elastically along its length, to create a localised hinge region of mostly uniform cylindrical curvature and bending moment, which do not vary with the fold angle of h
