4D fabrication of shape-changing systems for tissue engineering: state of the art and perspectives
Lorenzo Bonetti, Giulia Scalet
In recent years, four-dimensional (4D) fabrication has emerged as a powerful technology capable of revolutionizing the field of tissue engineering. This technology represents a shi…
Development and Comparison of Model-Based and Data-Driven Approaches for the Prediction of the Mechanical Properties of Lattice Structures
Chiara Pasini, Oscar Ramponi, Stefano Pandini +2
Lattice structures have great potential for several application fields ranging from medical and tissue engineering to aeronautical one. Their development is further speeded up by t…
Finite strain continuum phenomenological model describing the shape-memory effects in multi-phase semi-crystalline networks
Matteo Arricca, Nicoletta Inverardi, Stefano Pandini +3
Thermally-driven semi-crystalline polymer networks are capable to achieve both the one-way shape-memory effect and two-way shape-memory effect under stress and stress-free conditio…
Solvent-triggered shape change in gradient-based 4D printed bilayers: case study on semi-crystalline polymer networks
Lorenzo Bonetti, Aron Cobianchi, Daniele Natali +4
We propose an approach to 4D print solvent-triggered, gradient-based bilayers made of semi-crystalline crosslinked polymer networks. Out-of-plane bending is obtained after immersio…
