| dc.description.abstract | The flasher origami structure is a complex origami design characterized by multilayered coupling properties and deployment by rotational motion around an axis. This structure boasts an expansion ratio of up to 1:1000, making it highly desirable as a deployable structure in engineering applications. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the geometric modeling and deployment mechanisms of flasher origami. The current application areas of such structures are also outlined, serving as a foundational reference for future research. By reviewing the historical evolution and major research topics related to flasher origami structures, this article categorizes related research into two main themes: theoretical research and applied research. Depending on the distinct needs of theoretical and applied research, the design methods and principles of flasher origami structures are adjusted, offering a roadmap for future studies. This article summarizes the deployment mechanisms and existing applications of flasher origami structures and provides insights into future research directions. The goal is to stimulate innovative applications and guide future research efforts. Finally, common challenges encountered in application scenarios, simulation analysis, usage limitations, and practical implementation of flasher origami structures are addressed, and a forward-looking perspective on the research prospects in this field is offered. | |
