Engineers at Harvard have developed a 3D printing technique that produces soft robotic structures capable of twisting and bending in predictable patterns when inflated with air. The method, which ...

Metalworking has always been very much a “mixed method” art. Forging, welding, milling, grinding; anything to remove metal or push it around from one place to another is fair game when you’ve got to ...

Researchers at Harvard University’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences have produced 3D printed filaments that are capable of bending, twisting, expanding, or contracting in ...

A new rotational multimaterial 3D printing method enables materials to bend, twist, expand or contract on demand.

Stick Tech has published a patent application for getting a finished part off the build surface. The application, ...

Nature is replete with slender filaments that bend and coil – from climbing grape vines, to folded proteins, to elephant trunks that can pick up a peanut but also take down a tree. Harvard scientists ...

A new study maps how 3D printed layered composite beams behave under vibration and lists ways to tune stiffness and damping.
