Design Optimization Allows Engineers to Create the Impossible

Description

Additive manufacturing (AM) offers researchers unprecedented flexibility to print structures with shapes, properties, and behaviors that do not readily exist in nature and with microscopic features that were previously impossible. Simultaneously, AM poses a design challenge, as leveraging its many available material layouts can mean considering billions of design possibilities. Computational design optimization can resolve these extremely large and complex design problems that cannot be solved by intuition, prior experience, or trial and error.
