2D material-enhanced multi-fold self-sensing and programmable deployable lattice structure.

The development of intelligent and programmable smart composite structure that can remember and restore their original shape after being extensively deformed is highly sought after for a wide variety of applications, such as deployable and morphing structures, soft robots, and smart infrastructure. Despite recent advancements, there remains a plethora of unexplored possibilities in the field of deployable structures utilizing shape programmable and intelligent composite materials. The aim of this research is to manufacture a deployable structure that is intelligent enough to monitor the deployment and programmable to be deployed in specific way.
