Is there an incremental Miura?
Posted: October 4th, 2017, 3:16 am
Hi everyone,
I'm new to Origami and am very interested in the Miura fold.
I have a standard 8.5x11" Paper, and am able to do the standard tessellation Miura just fine. But what I am interested in is having some sort of fold where it goes in increments instead of folding the entire piece at once.
For example, when I fold my 8.5x11" Miura the entire paper starts folding simultaneously. Is there such a fold where the edges start folding individually while the center stays flat until the last fold?
Think of it like a Miura fold one fold at a time - or something like that. I'm looking for both the x and y to retract/expand at the same time until it is very small, while keeping the un-completley-folded parts of the paper flat.
Complexity is no problem, I always like a challenge.
Thanks everyone
