This thesis reports a rare combination of experiment and theory on
the role of geometry in materials science. It is built on two
significant findings: that curvature can be used to guide crack
paths in a predictive way, and that protected topological order can
exist in amorphous materials. In each, the underlying geometry
controls the elastic behavior of quasi-2D materials, enabling the
control of crack propagation in elastic sheets and the control of
unidirectional waves traveling at the boundary of metamaterials.
The thesis examines the consequences of this geometric control in a
range of materials spanning many orders of magnitude in length
scale, from amorphous macroscopic networks and elastic continua to
nanoscale lattices.
