Hi everyone--newbie here. :)
So been trying to find an answer to this question, and thought I'd try here. Basically I was wondering if you could weave a shape, like a slight curve. When force is applied to the shape, it would bend, but if it were left free of outside force, it would keep it's intial form. Also, it would be awesome if the initial shape had a minimum amount of rigidity to it, such that it would take n amount of force to cause it to start bending instead of any amount greater than 0; n ideally would be a very slight application of force, like a gentle push with your hand.
Does anyone know if (a) such a thing is possible given any material, and (b) how I would go about actually creating that?
Sorry in advance if it's a silly question for this forum; not sure where to look or who to ask. Open to any and all ideas! Thanks for the help.
