Abstract: A lattice structure is defined by a network of interconnected structural members whose architecture exhibits some degree of regularity. Although the overall architecture of a lattice may contain many members, its generation ...

Abstract: Rigid foldability is an important requirement when origami is used as the basis to design technical systems that consist of rigid materials. This paper presents a heuristic algorithm that adjusts the location of vertices ...

Abstract: The main limitations of currently available artificial spinal discs are geometric unfit and unnatural motion. Multi-material additive manufacturing (AM) offers a potential solution for the fabrication of personalized ...

Abstract: Today most origami crease patterns used in technical applications are selected from a handful of well-known origami principles. Computational algorithms capable of generating novel crease patterns either target artistic ...

Abstract: The design representations of lattice structures are fundamental to the development of computational design approaches. Current applications of lattice structures are characterized by ever-growing demand on computational ...
