Computational Design of Multimodal Combinatorial Mechanical Metamaterials

This dataset contains the data used to design multimodal mechanical metamaterials as described in the paper 'Prospecting for Pluripotency in Metamaterial Design', as published in XXX. In this paper, the data is used to design 5×5 unit cells with desired deformation (zero) modes. The dataset contains the data used to train neural networks (CNN_data.zip), the designs generated by genetic algorithm (step_i.zip) and their mode structures (step_ii.zip), and the designs obtained through our design approach as described in the paper (step_ii.zip). Additionally, there is data comparing the efficiency of using a genetic algorithm or a hill climbing method to generate designs with a large number of intensive modes (step_i.zip).
