Mechanical metamaterials are a class of functional materials with designability and
extraordinary mechanical properties. Due to the manufacturing limitation of traditional …

Snap‐through bistability is often observed in nature (eg, fast snap** to closure of Venus
flytrap) and the life (eg, bottle caps and hair clippers). Recently, harnessing bistability and …

Rationally designed architected materials have attained previously untapped territories in
materials property space. The properties and behaviours of architected materials need not …

Materials with target nonlinear mechanical response can support the design of innovative
soft robots, wearable devices, footwear, and energy‐absorbing systems, yet it is challenging …

Multistability is the phenomenon of multiple coexistent stable states, which are highly
sensitive to perturbations, initial conditions, system parameters, etc. Multistability has been …

In nature, cellular materials exhibit enhanced multifunctionalities driven mainly by their
sophisticated topologies and length scales. These natural systems have inspired the …

Origami-inspired metamorphous structures can adjust their shapes and mechanical
behaviors according to operational requirements. However, they are typically composed of …

Shape memory materials can maintain temporary shapes without external constraints and
revert to their permanent shape upon exposure to an external stimulus, such as heat, light …

Abstract Quasi‐zero‐stiffness (QZS) isolators of high‐static‐low‐dynamic stiffness play an
important role in ultra‐low frequency vibration mitigation. While the current designs of QZS …

Multistable mechanical metamaterials are a type of mechanical metamaterials with special
features, such as reusability, energy storage and absorption capabilities, rapid deformation …
