Scientists are pushing the limits of 3-D printing with these shape-shifting materials NBC: Jim McGuffin-Cawley, interim dean of the Case School of Engineering and the Arthur S. Holden Professor of ...

Civil and systems engineers at Johns Hopkins University have a turned a longstanding problem with 3D printers into a multifunctional feature: The team developed a new printing technique that solves ...

Understanding how dislocations (line defects in the crystal structure) occur when 3D-printing metals has been unclear to materials scientists. Understanding when and how dislocations form in ...

Self-healing materials are being developed by RIT researchers to further improve additive manufacturing, specifically 3D-printed products, to make them stronger and more resilient. Christopher Lewis ...

Engineers have developed a high-throughput, multimaterial 3D inkjet printer that uses computer vision to rapidly and automatically control the amount of material being deposited during the printing ...

Multi-material 3D printing lets users fabricate customized objects with multiple colors and varied textures. Yet the process can be time-consuming and wasteful because existing 3D printers must switch ...

A team of researchers led by the University of Cambridge has developed a new technique that uses high-energy lasers to fine tune the properties of 3D-printed metal without compromising the complex ...

What if a book could do more than just tell a story, what if it could move, teach, and inspire all at once? The 3D-printed mechanical book is not your average volume of pages. It’s a new fusion of ...

Slow but steady growth in the use of 3D-printed concrete in construction brings in new firms and users, as the nascent industry finds the right market niches for a continually evolving technology As ...
