Abstract We investigate the deformation in a uniform water flow of thin sheets perforated with parallel cuts. Through combined experiments and theory, we show that deployment is governed by the competition between fluid forces and sheet stretchability, which is prescribed by the cut pattern. Importantly, fluid loading is modulated by the local three-dimensional geometry of pores that open upon stretching.
