Kirigami in the Flow
Kirigami is a paper art that combines folding and cutting to create elaborate shapes. Here, researchers use cuts in thin sheets of plastic and explore how the sheets transform in a flow. Depending on the configuration of cuts, the sheets can stretch dramatically in the flow, creating complex, dynamic, and beautiful wakes. I feel like there must be some applications out there that would benefit from kirigami-induced mixing. (Video and image credit: A. Carleton and Y. Modarres-Sadeghi)
