Abstract

See full text

Miura-Ori-like origami, corresponding to a smoothly varying tessellation of unit cells, each of which is composed of a 2×2 grid of quadrilaterals, is employed to closely approximate a curved surface by one that can be easily collapsed and deployed. The unit cells do not necessarily perfectly repeat, but do vary smoothly across the origami pattern.
