Stimulus activated structures that deform from a reference to target configurations are used in various fields such as soft robotics, smart materials, and actuators. In this work we introduce a framework that captures the non-linear response of multi-layer polymeric beams subjected to thermo-mechanical loading. We show that the exploitation of the glass transition temperature can lead to a wide variety of interesting responses. Our findings provide guideline for an efficient design of shape-morphing structures capable of polymorphism.

A Ph.D. position is available in the Solids Mechanics Laboratory (LMS) at Ecole Polytechnique in the Paris area in France.
The project is to investigate three-dimensional instabilities in magneto-active thin films heterogeneously patterned by design.
The proposed thesis includes both experimental (3D printing of magneto-sensitive polymers) and numerical (finite element) aspects.
