 Abstract\nDeployable structures have found widespread applications in engi
 neering because of their ability to change shape and size significantly. C
 ombining rods and sheets brings together their advantages for designing de
 ployable structures. We showcase the vast design space that can be achieve
 d with rods and sheets and discuss the plan for exploring the design space
  using computational methods.\nIn this proposal\, we also discuss three pa
 pers that cover three essential aspects of the modeling of rod-sheet deplo
 yable structures: a reduced model for elastic rods\, a discretization sche
 me for simulating sheet curvature\, and a robust contact handling techniqu
 e between elements.\n\nBackground papers\n1. Miklós Bergou\, Max Wardetzk
