A new type of "ink" makes it possible to 3D print electrochemically switchable, conducting polymers using a light-based ...

In the 1980s when micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) were first created, computer engineers were excited by the idea ...

Using computer-aided design, 3D printing builds an item up layer by layer in a very precise fashion. Initially, plastics and metal powders were used as the feedstock for the process, but now resins, ...

A research team led by the University of Cambridge developed a method that combines the ability to 3D print complex shapes and to engineer the structure and properties of metals without the need for ...

The concept of rheology refers to a branch of physics that studies fluids. It examines how materials behave when they flow or ...

When humans begin to colonize the moon and Mars, they will need to be able to make everything from small tools to large buildings using the limited surrounding resources. “For places like other ...

A new method developed by researchers in Japan has solved the tricky problem of successfully 3D printing multicolor and multi-material microstructures in a single-step method. The technique—invented ...

Researchers in Kiel have developed a laser-based 3D printing process for glass. It significantly simplifies 3D printing with ...

A team led by aerospace Ph.D. student Ivan Wu and his advisor Jeff Baur has developed a low-energy, scalable technique that ...

Engineers have created a way to 3D print large and complex parts at a fraction of the cost of current methods. Rutgers engineers have created a way to 3D print large and complex parts at a fraction of ...

Researchers from the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) developed a method to perform direct ink writing (DIW) 3D printing of milk-based products at room temperature, while ...
