Computer Aided Design for Origamic Architecture Models with Polygonal Representation
An Origamic Architecture (OA) is a folded sheet of perforated paper from which a three-dimensional structure "pops up" when it is opened. It is similar to a "pop-up...

Folding Flat Silhouettes and Wrapping Polyhedral Packages: New Results in Computational Origami
We show a remarkable fact about folding paper: From a single rectangular sheet of paper, one can fold it into a flat origami that takes the (scaled) shape of any connected polygo...

Predicting protein folding pathways at the mesoscopic level based on native interactions between secondary structure elements
Background: Since experimental determination of protein folding pathways remains difficult, computational techniques are often used to simulate protein folding. Most current techn...

Curved folding
Fascinating and elegant shapes may be folded from a single planar sheet of material without stretching, tearing or cutting, if one incorporates curved folds into the design. We pr...

An energy-driven approach to linkage unfolding
We present a new algorithm for unfolding planar polygonal linkages without self-intersection based on following the gradient flow of a “repulsive” energy function. This algor...
