Hardcover. These four volumes of proceedings contain 126 papers contributed to the 8th International Meeting on Origami Science, Mathematics and Education (8OSME), held on 16-18 July 2024 at Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia. The papers represent current work in different disciplines of origami and they are grouped into four subject themes, Volume 1 - Engineering I, Volume 2 - Engineering II, Volume 3 - Mathematics, Computation, History and Mental Health, and Volume 4 - Design and Education. We witness increasing interests in origami from researchers, practitioners and artists. Of a special note is the rapidly growing research in origami engineering, a distinctive field with fundamental concepts and applications related to space, mechanical, material, medical and structural engineering etc. Participants of 8OSME should find great passion and opportunity of collaborations across disciplines of origami. We hope these four volumes will inspire not just currently active researchers and artists, but also the next generation of origami scientists, mathematicians, engineers, designers, historians, and teachers. The papers represent current work in different disciplines of origami and they are grouped into four subject themes, Volume 1 - Engineering I, Volume 2 - Engineering II, Volume 3 - Mathematics, Computation, History and Mental Health, and Volume 4 - Design and Education. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

About the Author
Michael Assis is a mathematical physicist and origami artist. He received his PhD from Stony Brook University in the area of statistical mechanics, with applications in combinatorics and computational mathematics. He has exhibited his original origami models in conferences in several countries, and actively contributes to research in origami mathematics. He is currently based at the University of Melbourne, working in medical research in the area of paediatric oncofertility.
Guoxing Lu is a Qiushi Chair Professor in the Department of Engineering Mechanics, Zhejiang University, China. Prior to that, he was a University Distinguished Professor and Founding Director of the Impact Engineering Laboratory, Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. He held academic positions at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. In 1989, he obtained his PhD in Structural Mechanics from the University of Cambridge.
Zhong You is a professor of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford. His research encompasses the fields of folding and origami structures, with a particular focus on the development of a systematic approach to the creation of large deployable assemblies. He served as the chairperson for 7OSME, which was held in Oxford in 2018. He obtained his PhD in structural engineering from the University of Cambridge.
