Tissen, L.N.M. (author)This article uses the COVID –19 crisis to re –evaluate the importance of reproductions – 3D prints – for art’s authenticity, and their significance in keeping art museums meaningful in a rapidly changing world. The fixation on ‘auratic experiences’, inherent to artworks’ materiality is integral to contemporary art theory and museum practice,...journal article 2021

Ritzen, L. (author), Montano, V. (author), Garcia, Santiago J. (author)The use of self-healing (SH) polymers to make 3D-printed polymeric parts offers the po-tential to increase the quality of 3D-printed parts and to increase their durability and damage toler-ance due to their (on-demand) dynamic nature. Nevertheless, 3D-printing of such dynamic poly-mers is not a straightforward process due to their polymer...journal article 2021

Wu, J. (author), Wang, W. (author), Gao, Xifeng (author)Inspired by natural cellular materials such as trabecular bone, lattice structures have been developed as a new type of lightweight material. In this paper we present a novel method to design lattice structures that conform with both the principal stress directions and the boundary of the optimized shape. Our method consists of two major...journal article 2021

Cuellar Lopez, J.S. (author), Plettenburg, D.H. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author), Breedveld, P. (author), Smit, G. (author)Various upper-limb prostheses have been designed for 3D printing but only a few of them are based on bio-inspired design principles and many anatomical details are not typically incorporated even though 3D printing offers advantages that facilitate the application of such design principles. We therefore aimed to apply a bio-inspired approach...journal article 2021

(author)Additively manufactured biodegradable porous iron has been only very recently demonstrated. Two major limitations of such a biomaterial are very low biodegradability and incompatibility with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Here, we present a novel biomaterial that resolves both of those limitations. We used extrusion-based 3D printing to...journal article 2021

Balasubramanian, S. (author), Yu, K. (author), Meyer, Anne S. (author), Karana, E. (author), Aubin-Tam, M.E. (author)Living materials, which are fabricated by encapsulating living biological cells within a non-living matrix, have gained increasing attention in recent years. Their fabrication in spatially defined patterns that are mechanically robust is essential for their optimal functional performance but is difficult to achieve. Here, a bioprinting...journal article 2021

Xu, Y. (author), Zhang, H. (author), Gan, Y. (author), Šavija, B. (author)Cementitious materials are widely used in construction. For their low ductility, they typically need to be reinforced by steel rebars, which cause potential corrosion problems. Polymeric reinforcement, which does not have corrosion problems, has been used to replace steel rebars. However, a relatively high reinforcing ratio is usually...journal article 2021

Rodiftsis, Athanasios (author)When designing for structural performance, the geometry of the load-bearing elements is crucial for achieving the required stability. This is even more important in structural forms, such as shells and arches that are predominantly designed by their structural requirements. However, the typical design process starts with the design by the...master thesis 2020
