Description

Description: This licensable technology focuses on optimizing various 3D printing parameters such as infill density, geometry, layer thickness, and material distribution to enhance the anisotropic material properties of printed parts. This research aims to create a database of material properties for single and dual material 3D printed parts, enabling accurate prediction of part behavior under real-world conditions without the need for additional experimental testing. Key Advantages: Significant reduction in material costs and 3D printing expenses. Elimination of the need for post-design experimental testing. Creation of a comprehensive database for anisotropic material properties. Enables accurate and reliable design and numerical modeling of 3D printed parts. Opens new avenues for the ap
