This paper explores the impact of directional material properties on the mechanical responses of origami structures, focusing on the Miura-Ori structures. By studying carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites and the geometric parameters of Miura-Ori, the paper demonstrates that CFRP composites can achieve higher stiffness and Poisson's ratio than isotropic materials. Regression analysis reveals the relationship between geometric parameters and mechanical responses, leading to the discovery of optimal Miura-Ori structures. The research provides valuable insights for designing and optimizing origami structures incorporating composite materials.
This paper aims to understand the role of directional material properties on the mechanical responses of origami structures. We consider the Miura-Ori structures our target model due to their collapsibility and negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) effects, which are widely used in shock absorbers, disaster shelters, aerospace applications, etc. Traditional Miura-Ori structures are made of isotropic materials (Aluminum, Acrylic), whose mechanical properties like stiffness and NPR are well understood. However, how these responses are affected by directional materials, like Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composites, needs more in-depth understanding. To that end, we study how fiber directions and arrangements in CFRP composites and Miura-Ori's geometric parameters control the stiffness and NPR of such structures. Through finite element analysis, we show that Miura-Ori structures made of CFRP composites can achieve higher stiffness and Poisson's ratio values than those made of an isotropic material like Aluminum. Then through regression analysis, we establish the relationship between different geometric parameters and the corresponding mechanical responses, which is further utilized to discover the Miura-Ori structure's optimal shape. We also show that the shear modulus is a dominant parameter that controls the mechanical responses mentioned above among the individual composite material properties within the Miura-Ori structure. We demonstrate that we can optimize the Miura-Ori structure by finding geometric and material parameters that result in combined stiffest and most compressible structures. We anticipate our research to be a starting point for designing and optimizing more sophisticated origami structures with composite materials incorporated.
