Design of Rigidity and Breaking Strain for a Kirigami Structure with Non-Uniform Deformed Regions

We modeled a kirigami structure by considering the influence of non-uniform deforming cuts in order to theoretically design the mechanical characteristics of the structure. It is known that the end regions of kirigami structures are non-uniformly deformed when stretched, because the deformation is i...
