title: Harnessing Buckling to Design Architected Materials that Exhibit Effective Negative Swelling.
abstract: Inspired by the need to develop materials capable of targeted and extreme volume changes during operation, numerical simulations and experiments are combined to design a new class of soft architected materials that achieve a reduction of projected surface-area coverage during swelling.
