What we do:
Solid Mechanics

After seeing its foundations, the field of mechanics diverges as several branches, such as structural mechanics, material science, biomechanics, and earthquake physics. Despite its long history of research, mechanics remains an active field of research through the paradigm shift. Instead of avoiding the failure of structures, we harness the Structural Instabilities in Geometry and MAterials to predict new forms and functionalities.

Slender structures

The application of slender structures is far-reaching in different length-scales.

Soft Robotics

Model experimental systems of soft robots inspire their novel optimization principles.


Experiment

Novel fabrication techniques allow us to establish predictive model systems. 


Elasticity & Geometry

The deformation of slender structures relies primarily on geometric nonlinearities.
