CRUMPLING EXPERIMENTS
• Mylar sheet rolled int 3cm diameter cylinder and compressed uniaxially to
specified depth within a cylindrical container
• Damage networks, that is crease patterns appear
• Creased sheet is scanned and ridges and valleys are extracted using a laser
profilometer
• Process is repeated 4 to 24 times
• Experimental process is expensive

GOVERNING THEOREMS ON FLAT
FOLDING SHEETS
• Maekawa’s theorem
• Creases cannot begin or terminate in the interior of a sheet—they must either
reach the boundary or create closed loops
• The number of ridge and valley creases that meet at each vertex differs by two
• Kawasaki’s theorem
• Alternating sector angles must sum to π

RESULTS USING EXPERIMENTAL DATA
ALONE
Prediction was poor as the neural net overfit the input data and thus was a bad predictor

CONCLUSION
• Since the perturbed in silico data violating the rules performed worse than the
unperturbed, this suggests that there is a hidden statistical similarity between
crumpled sheets and flat folded sheets
