The investigation aims to study the effects of temperature and damage constitutive model on the energy absorption performance of polymeric origami tubes under quasi-static impact. The uniaxial tensile responses of 3D-printed polylactic acid (PLA) samples following standard ASTM-D412 have been studied to characterize the mechanical properties at three temperatures: 30 °C, 40 °C, and 50 °C. The damage constitutive model is used to accurately characterize the stress-strain relations of the PLA. Quasi-static compressive experiments are performed on polymetric tubes with different temperatures. The 3D-printed technique is used to ensure the integrated formation of these polymeric origami tubes. The user-defined material subroutine VUMAT for ABAQUS/Explicit has been developed for the damage model. Compared with the results, the observed deformation processes are well captured by the numerical simulations, and the influence of temperature on the axial compression is also analyzed in detail.

Origami folding structures are vital in shaping programmable mechanical material properties. Of particular note, tunable dynamical properties of elastic wave propagation in origami structures have been reported. Despite the promising features of origami metamaterials, the influence of the kinematics of tessellated origami structures on elastic wave propagation remain unexplored.

Article Synopsis
- A new soft crawling robot (OVFSCR) inspired by origami design has been developed, featuring foldable mirrored actuators that allow for movements like crawling, climbing, and turning.
- The robot's unique structure, with low front and high rear feet, creates friction differences to enable efficient forward motion by coordinating body deformation with its foot placements.
- OVFSCR demonstrates multifunctionality, achieving an average crawling speed of 11.9 mm/s, navigating slopes and obstacles, and mimicking the movement of soft worms, which has potential applications in adaptive navigation and exploration.

Applying tessellated origami patterns to the design of mechanical materials can enhance properties such as strength-to-weight ratio and impact absorption ability. Another advantage is the predictability of the deformation mechanics since origami materials typically deform through the folding and unfolding of their creases. This work focuses on creating 4D printed flexible tubular origami based on three different origami patterns: the accordion, the Kresling and the Yoshimura origami patterns, fabricated with a flexible polylactic acid (PLA) filament with heat-activated shape memory effect.

Hierarchical self-assembly of nanostructures with addressable complexity has been a promising route for realizing novel functional materials. Traditionally, the fabrication of such structures on a large scale has been achievable using top-down methods but with the cost of complexity of the fabrication equipment resolution and limitation mainly to 2D structures. More recently bottom-up methods using molecules like DNA have gained attention due to the advantages of low fabrication costs, high resolution and simplicity in an extension of the methods to the third dimension.

Exploration of clinically acceptable blood glucose monitors has been engaging in the past decades, yet the ability to quantitatively detect blood glucose in a painless, accurate, and highly sensitive manner remains limited. Herein, a fluorescence-amplified origami microneedle (FAOM) device is described that integrates tubular DNA-origami nanostructures and glucose oxidase molecules into its inner network to quantitatively monitor blood glucose. The skin-attached FAOM device can collect glucose molecules in situ and transfer the input into a proton signal after the oxidase's catalysis.
