BYU Engineering is well known for origami-inspired research and innovations, including foldable antenna systems used in space. Recently, an undergraduate student made a significant discovery—a new ...

Bloom patterns could be useful, as engineers build folding structures to send to outer space. They’re also very pretty. Researchers have now found a new class of origami that they call bloom patterns, ...

Prior to bloom patterns, there was no origami pattern that could combine all three valuable properties. The bloom pattern findings are detailed in a paper published August 20 in the journal ...
