| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study developed a novel tequnique to make 3D object from a single sheet material by integrated design of creases and cuts. The method showed a new vision and the way of thinking over the conventinal origami engineering that hesitated to use cuts.
We solved geometrical principles of Rotational Erection System (RES) and then developed software tools in Geogebra. We presented dozens of images of paper models on the Web to demonstrated the wide variety of designs made possible with the method and the tools. We applied the method for furniture scale objects with plastic sandwich panels. AS the preliminary trial for the future development of architectural use, we made two prototypes of 2m diameter plywood dome skeleton which were successfully stabilized with the tension chain ring at the top. This model suggested possibility of the method to be extended to 10m to 30m scale concrete dome skeleton with tilt-up concrete construction.
