Bioinspired 3D printing: Architected design creates efficient structures
When 3D printing was first introduced in 1985, it marked a major turning point for the manufacturing industry. In addition to ...
Everyone is 3D printing, but what about 3D printing metallic structures in mid air? Researchers at Harvard's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering 3D printed a metallic structure in mid ...
When a tall building needs to be renovated or repaired, cranes and scaffolding are the typical solution — but one group of researchers wonders whether this problem couldn’t be solved in a more ...
The University of Michigan researchers have developed a method for creating ultra-lightweight, waste-free concrete using 3D printing technology called the "Shell Wall." Researchers at the University ...
Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls. What if construction ...
