Oligomodal metamaterials with multifunctional mechanics.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mechanical metamaterials are artificial composites that exhibit a wide range of advanced functionalities such as negative Poisson's ratio, shape shifting, topological protection, multistability, extreme strength-to-density ratio, and enhanced energy dissipation. In particular, flexible metamaterials often harness zero-energy deformation modes. To date, such flexible metamaterials have a single property, for example, a single shape change, or are pluripotent, that is, they can have many different responses, but typically require complex actuation protocols. Here, we introduce a class of oligomodal metamaterials that encode a few distinct properties that can be selectively controlled under uniaxial compression. To demonstrate this concept, we introduce a combinatorial design space containing various families of metamaterials. These families include monomodal (i.e., with a single zero-energy deformation mode); oligomodal (i.e., with a constant number of zero-energy deformation modes); and plurimodal (i.e., with many zero-energy deformation modes), whose number increases with system size. We then confirm the multifunctional nature of oligomodal metamaterials using both boundary textures and viscoelasticity. In particular, we realize a metamaterial that has a negative (positive) Poisson's ratio for low (high) compression rate over a finite range of strains. The ability of our oligomodal metamaterials to host multiple mechanical responses within a single structure paves the way toward multifunctional materials and devices.
