Inhaltsangabe

4D-Printed Smart Materials and Structures: Mechanics, Modeling, and Advanced Engineering Applications provides a thorough introduction to the fundamentals of the mechanics, manufacturing, modeling and applications of 4D printed smart materials and structures. The book starts by covering the basic theories, definitions and fabrication details of 4D printing and various smart materials such as shape memory polymers, stimuli-responsive hydrogels, pneumatic soft actuators, dielectric elastomer soft robots, liquid crystal elastomers, shape memory alloys, and magnetic stimulus structures. The book then examines the mechanics of these materials and their various applications, covering topics such as variable stiffness, miniature-sized 4D printing, and more.

The book also includes a chapter on machine learning in 4D printing and provides applications in mechanical, aerospace, civil and structural engineering, among others.

• Covers the mechanics, manufacturing processes and applications of 4D-printed smart materials and structures
• Discusses applications in civil, mechanical, aerospace, polymer and biomedical engineering
• Presents experimental, numerical and analytical studies in a simple and straightforward manner, providing tools that can be immediately implemented and adapted by readers to fit their work

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Dr. Mahdi Bodaghi is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Engineering, School of Science and Technology at Nottingham Trent University. He heads the 4D Materials & Printing Laboratory (4DMPL) that hosts a broad portfolio of projects focusing on the electro-thermo-mechanical multi-scale behaviors of smart materials, soft robots, and 3D/4D printing technologies. His research is based on the advancement of state-of-the-art smart materials and additive manufacturing leading him to co-found the 4D Printing Society and to co-edit Smart Materials in Additive Manufacturing, volumes 1 and 2 (Elsevier). Dr. Bodaghi’s research has led to the publication of over 120 scientific papers in prestigious journals in mechanics, manufacturing, and materials science, as well as the presentation of his work at major international conferences. His research awards include the Best Doctoral Thesis Award of 2015, 2016 CUHK Postdoctoral Fellowship, the Annual Best Paper Award in Mechanics and Material Systems presented by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 2017, 2018 Horizon Postdoctoral Fellowship Awardee, and 2021 IJPEM-GT Contribution Award recognized by the Korea Society for Precision Engineering.

Dr. Ali Zolfagharian is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Built Environment, School of Engineering at Deakin University, Australia and has been Director of the 4D Printing and Robotic Materials lab at the university since 2018. He is the co-founder of the 4D Printing Society, co-editor of the 2-volume Smart Materials in Additive Manufacturing set published by Elsevier, and a technical committee member of 5 international conferences. Dr. Zolfagharian has been among the 2% top cited scientists listed by Stanford University and Elsevier (2020), the Alfred Deakin Medallist for Best Doctoral Thesis (2019), and the Alfred Deakin Postdoctoral Fellowship Awardee (2018). His research focuses on flexible manipulators, soft grippers, robotic materials 3D/4D printing, and bioprinting.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

4D-Printed Smart Materials and Structures: Mechanics, Modeling, and Advanced Engineering Applications provides a thorough introduction to the fundamentals of the mechanics, manufacturing, modeling, and applications of 4D printed smart materials and structures. Divided into two sections, the book starts by covering the basic theories, definitions, and fabrication details of 4D printing and various smart materials such as shape memory polymers, stimuli-responsive hydrogels, pneumatic soft actuators, dielectric elastomer soft robots, liquid crystal elastomers, shape memory alloys, and magnetic stimulus structures. The second part then examines the mechanics of these materials and their various applications, covering topics such as variable stiffness, miniature-sized 4D printing, and bi-stable and multi-stable mechanisms. The book also includes a chapter on machine learning in 4D printing and provides applications in mechanical, aerospace, civil, and structural engineering, among others.
