Researchers worked to revolutionize 4D printing by making a 3D fabricated material change its shape and back again repeatedly without electrical components. Reversible 4D printing technology could ...

OXFORD – A University of Mississippi engineering professor has won the National Science Foundation's most prestigious award for early career researchers for his upcoming work in 4D printing. The ...

3D printing is well understood and ubiquitous by now but not many may know of 4D printing. To put it simply, 4D printing is the process by which a 3D-printed object transforms itself into another ...

While 3D bioprinting is widely used to construct complex biocompatible structures, researchers are now attempting to extend the technique into the fourth dimension. Here, 3D printed objects can be ...

video: UNSW Sydney researchers have successfully merged 3D/4D printing with a chemical process to produce 'living' resin, which has huge potential for fields as diverse as recycling and biomedicine.

Frost & Sullivan’s new report sheds light on the trends facing 4D technology and the markets it’s looking to serve in the next few years. 4D printing develops materials that can change properties and ...

If you’re a fan of the Big Bang Theory, you may remember how Howard and Raj spent three hours printing a 25 cent whistle in a 3D printer. More of a sci-fi fan? Then, you likely watched in Jurassic ...

Wilmington, Delaware, July 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 4D printing represents the evolution of 3D printing technology, adding an additional dimension: time. This innovative manufacturing process ...

Figure 1: Programming localized anisotropy via biomimetic 4D printing. A series of simple printed bilayer architectures allows us to explore these relationships and the quantitative connection between ...

Though the practice of 3D printing is still firmly entrenched in its journey from fledgling idea to emerging technology, news out of Harvard’s Wyss Institute this week proves innovation waits for no ...
