FlexScale: Modeling and Characterization of Flexible Scaled Sheets teaser

Overview

FlexScale models sheets made from hard scales embedded in a soft substrate. Contact-aware homogenization turns detailed simulations into an efficient macroscopic material model. The approach explores how scale patterns affect nonlinear and directional behavior, with comparisons to physical prototypes.
