Dr Mahdi Bodaghi from Nottingham Trent University explains why 4D printing is the new frontier in materials and manufacturing science.

Have you ever imaged high-resolution 3D structures at the micro/nanoscale that react dynamically to their surroundings? The 4D printing technology is changing the game by using smart materials ...

4D printing is real, happening now, and has the potential to shape the world. Self-assembly in 4D printing uses materials responding to external stimuli. A regular 3D printer can be used to create ...

Machine learning approaches Researchers are also starting to use AI and machine learning to fully leverage the adaptability that 4D printing offers. Using modeling and simulation, it is possible to ...

Taken together, this review emphasizes the appealing utility of 3D/4D printed biological piezoelectric scaffolds as next-generation bone tissue engineering implants.

A 4D printed object is like a 3D printed object, but it changes shape or self-assembles when its environment changes. [Teaching Tech] has been reading about this technology and decided to try to re… ...

Researchers have created software and hardware for a 4D printer with applications in the biomedical field. In addition to 3D printing, this machine allows for controlling extra functions ...
