With the rapid development of space technology and the increasing demand for space
missions, the traditional spacecraft manufacturing, deployment and launch methods have …

We describe an approach for the discrete and reversible assembly of tunable and actively
deformable structures using modular building block parts for robotic applications. The …

Ultra-high angular resolution in astronomy has always been an important vehicle for making
fundamental discoveries. Recent results in direct imaging of the vicinity of the supermassive …

Lattice structures for engineering applications are patterns of unit cells designed to make a
larger functional structure. Research on lattice structures ranges in many fields, from …

Rapid‐prototy** processes are being extended to increasingly large scales, including 3D
printing from gantries, and robotic arms for cutting, milling and winding. These all use …

In this paper, a new possibility of fabricating a metal lattice structure with a continuous rod is
demonstrated. A multi-layer, periodic, and aperiodic lattice structure can be manufactured …

The paper will discuss two projects which explore the territory of discrete or digital material
organisations in an architectural context. Taking inspiration from the field of Digital Materials …

Building with additive manufacturing is an increasingly relevant research topic in the field of
Construction 4.0, where designers are seeking higher levels of automation, complexity and …

Octet lattice structures were designed with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP)
composite hollow cylindrical struts to improve the specific compressive strength and stiffness …

As additive manufacturing of mechanical parts gains broad acceptance, efforts to embed
electronic or electromechanical components in these parts are intensifying. We discuss …
