Extrusion-based #3Dprinting enables a high resolution of detail in programming #metamaterial structures. By leveraging industrial robot platforms, 3D-printed meta-structures can be upscaled and tailored through a continuous, interwoven, and layer-by-layer extrusion trajectory.

In transitioning from small-scale hobbyist 3D-printers to large-scale robot extrusion platforms, the correlation between #printingparameter and #mechanicalproperty is preserved. By modulating these #functionalpatterns, mechanical properties can be tuned in specific directions.

Based on the interplay between their #hinge #geometry, #bilayer #structure, and #responsive #material, each #4Dprinted structure here computes its own #folded #shape by equalizing its moisture content to the surrounding #environmental conditions.

The motion of #selfshaping materials can be amplified by #4Dprinting building blocks of #bilayers in greater assemblies, creating #mechanisms that autonomously expand (and contract) considerably in size and volume.

Through the #design of its #mesostructure and by controlling the extrusion trajectory during #fusedFilamentFabrication, #4Dprinted material systems can be #programmed with custom shapes and #movements — enabling designs with new forms of #responsive, spatio-temporal behaviors.

#FusedFilamentFabrication (the most common and affordable type of #AdditiveManufacturing) is well suited for structuring printed parts at the #mesoscale and mimicking the self-shaping behavior of plants — a process called #bioinspired #4Dprinting.

I am excited to finally share the news of my appointment as #AssistantProfessor at the @CornellAAP Department of Design Tech!
Until my relocation to the US from Germany in January 2025, I will be introducing my previous work upon which the #MULTIMESO Lab is based.
Stay tuned…!

Mimicking the behavior of potato plants, these self‐shaping materials become curved and helical in response to humidity.
This is exploited to manufacture a self-adjustable and wearable system for orthotic devices.
