Design framework for multifunctional additive manufacturing: coupled optimization strategy for structures with embedded functional systems

The driver for this research is the development of multi-material additive manufacturing processes that provide the potential for multi-functional parts to be manufactured in a single operation. In order to exploit the potential benefits of this emergent technology, new design, analysis and optimiza...
