Multimaterial 3D printers can fabricate designs with spatially-varying material blends, but current design software tools cannot represent these designs, so we made OpenVCAD - a multimaterial design compiler: authors.elsevier.com/c/1iF2o7tcTWlO…
Impact mitigation is ubiquitous, from packing materials to personal sporting equipment to car bumpers - the goal is to reduce peak accelerations in a finite space. Our result shows how to do this better by using a 3D printed metamaterial geometry. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…
Our new paper enables "Pantone for material properties". It shows a user of a 3D printer how to achieve specific material properties using a small set of "primary" materials and digitally mixing those materials during the print.

Our paper showing how solid materials can be directly printed on top of liquids in an inkjet context was published in Additive Manufacturing, solving a longstanding support-removal problem, and expanding the inkjet AM material palette.
