Kirigami is a traditional art of papercraft, which makes 3 dimensional structure from 2 dimensional sheet. Recent years, the mathematical foundations of kirigami and origami have been developed as well as the practical applications. In this research, we analyze the out-of-plane deformation of kirigami structrue under tensile force, and investigate the mechanism of the deformation based on beam theory. We simulate the process from in-plane deformation to out-of-plane deformation using molecular dynamics, and discuss the effect of stability and geometry parameters.
