The emerging capability to 3D print a diverse palette of functional inks will enable the mass
democratization of patient-specific wearable devices and smart biomedical implants for …

Due to the wide diffusion of 3D printing technologies, geometric algorithms for Additive
Manufacturing are being invented at an impressive speed. Each single step along the …

The anisotropy of mechanical strength on a 3D printed model can be controlled in a multi-
axis 3D printing system as materials can be accumulated along dynamically varied …

Inspired by natural cellular materials such as trabecular bone, lattice structures have been
developed as a new type of lightweight material. In this paper we present a novel method to …

While fabrication technologies have been in use in industry for several decades, expiring
patents have recently allowed the technology to spill over to technology-enthusiastic …

Additive fabrication technologies are limited by the types of material they can print: while the
technologies are continuously improving, still only a relatively small discrete set of materials …

Mechanical metamaterials enable customizing the elastic properties of physical objects by
altering their fine-scale structure. A broad gamut of effective material properties can be …

We present the first algorithm for designing volumetric Michell Trusses. Our method uses a
parametrization-based approach to generate trusses made of structural elements aligned …

This paper introduces a novel method for designing personalized orthopedic casts which
are aware of thermal-comfort while satisfying mechanical requirements. Our pipeline starts …

This paper applies the topology optimization (TO) technique to the design of custom
compression casts/braces on two-manifold mesh surfaces. Conventional braces or casts …
