Origami Engineering
Mathematical paper folding using Huzita-Hatori axioms, Miura folds, and computational crease patterns. NASA uses origami principles for deployable solar arrays and James Webb's sunshield. Transforms flat sheets into precise three-dimensional structures through geometry alone.
What the Creases Already Knew
