Zusammenfassung:	A flexible, twistable, bendable, or foldable article comprises and a plurality of material layers stacked upon each other, each material layer being thinner than the length or width of that material layer. The plurality of material layers includes a strain-sensitive layer and an electrodeformable layer configured to deform dimensionally under varying electrical bias. The electrodeformable layer includes two or more electrodes configured to receive the varying electrical bias, to operatively induce a dimensional change in the electrodeformable layer that relieves strain in the strain-sensitive layer.
