RESEARCH THRUSTS

01

Design Complexity

We seek to understand how AM’s layer-by-layer nature enables previously unthought of geometries and material distributions.  This includes special focus on realizing functionally graded materials and leveraging  voxlel-based design for complex geometries.

02

Design Guidelines

We seek to understand how AM processes influence the “rules of thumb” required to ensure a manufactured product mirrors its original design intent.  This includes considerations for multifunctional in-situ embedding and concrete extrusion printing.
