They focused on gyroid infill, an intricate, repeating internal structure commonly employed in additive manufacturing to minimize weight while preserving structural integrity.
When it comes to FDM 3D prints and making them stronger, most of the focus is on the outer walls and factors like their layer adhesion. However, paying some attention to the often-ignored insides of a ...
Learn how print orientation impacts 3D-printed part strength and appearance. Explore strategies for better results in your designs.
It is a fact of life that 3D printed parts from an FDM (fused deposition modeling) printer have weaknesses where the layers join. Some of this is due to voids and imperfect layer bonding, but you can ...
Scientists from Cornell University, Purdue University and Case Western Reserve University have taken inspiration from bone to create more durable 3D printed structures. This could eventually make 3D ...
The hunt for more sustainable concrete to replace the climate change driving force of Portland cement has hit a massive leap in progression. This progression comes in the form of a new type of ...
Engineers at the University of Maine have developed a groundbreaking method to accurately predict the strength of lightweight 3D-printed objects. This research, conducted at the university's Advanced ...
A team of researchers from Xi’an Jiaotong University, Tianmushan Laboratory, and the National University of Singapore has pioneered a new method for crafting an ultra-strong, ductile alloy using 3D ...
Apparently, folks in the material science world are totally over the fact that we're able to 3D print titanium alloys willy-nilly. Because they have exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion ...
3D printing technology is rapidly evolving and has shown promise in applications spanning from the fabrication of biological tissues to the development of ceramics capable of removing persistent ...
Scientists at EPFL have reimagined 3D printing by turning simple hydrogels into tough metals and ceramics. Their process allows multiple infusions of metal salts that form dense, high-strength ...
