Multi-scale structures, as found in nature (eg, bone and bamboo), hold the promise of
achieving superior performance while being intrinsically lightweight, robust, and multi …

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is an additive manufacturing process, which constructs
physical items by fused melt material, selectively deposited layer-by-layer through a heated …

Abstract 3D printing plays an excellent role in the fabrication of customized parts for a variety
of industrial sectors, but the printing parameters have a major influence on the performance …

To date, both the stress-related and multi-material topology optimization problems have
been extensively studied. However, there are few works addressing the stress-constrained …

Additive manufacturing (AM) has been increasingly developed and applied in many fields
