Direct Digital Manufacturing is a new set of technologies which allow objects to be printed directly from a digital definition. Such technologies allow us to manufacture any self-supporting shape, but simply replicating shape is not sufficient for the production of many parts especially those with specific function. We need to be able to generate complex multiscale structures similar to those we observe in nature. Direct digital manufacturing can be seen as method for achieving this, as we can deposit materials with different compositions and different structures in selected volumes and thereby generate a complex structure. This manuscript addresses the challenges of achieving this concept and the tools needed to characterize the parts produced and the variation in the composition and structure. We conclude by discussing how we might design such complex parts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
