The website, launched by the National Institutes of Health, is called the NIH 3D Print Exchange, and contains a library of files that a 3D printer can read and print. The files all relate to ...

Researchers at MIT have figured out a way to 3D print shape-changing soft materials ... "People can design their own structures and domain patterns, validate them with the model, and print ...

Back in 1999, Erik Demaine was a PhD student who created an algorithm that determined the folding patterns necessary to turn a piece of paper into any 3D shape. However, the algorithm was far from ...

Carnegie Mellon researchers have created a method that generates knitting patterns for arbitrary 3D shapes, opening the possibility of “on-demand knitting.” Think 3D printing, but softer.

Zero. Vertices? None. Oh dear! Oh well. The spheres are disappointed and one is angry. 3D shapes have faces (sides), edges and vertices (corners). Faces - A face is a flat or curved surface on a ...
