Finding ideal materials remains a crucial challenge in the aerospace, automotive,
construction, and biomedical industries. Moreover, a growing concern about environmental …

We present a multimaterial voxel-printing method that enables the physical visualization of
data sets commonly associated with scientific imaging. Leveraging voxel-based control of …

Auxetic cellular materials are modern materials which have some unique and superior
mechanical properties. As a consequence of the structural deformation of their internal …

Abstract 3D printable multi-material honeycombs have attracted increasing interest recently
due to the improved elastic moduli, buckling and energy absorption properties. This paper …

We present a design optimization and manufacturing approach for the creation of complex
three-dimensional (3D) curved rod structures with spatially variable material distributions …

Architect Neri Oxman, Associate Professor and Head of the Mediated Matter Group at the
MIT Media Lab, introduces how new advances in additive manufacturing coupled with …

Purpose This study aims to investigate the tensile strength and elastic modulus of custom-
designed polymer composites developed using voxel-based design. This study also …

We present a generative method for the creation of geometrically complex and materially
heterogeneous objects. By combining generative design and additive manufacturing, we …

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly become a widespread design aid through the recent
proliferation of generative AI tools. In this work we use generative AI to explore soft robotics …

Auxetic materials are a novel class of mechanical metamaterials which exhibit an interesting
property of negative Poisson ratio by virtue of their architecture rather than composition. It …
