Open call for papers on the topic of 4D Printing!

Introduction

The 4D Printing is the first of its kind journal and aims to make a significant impact on the 4D additive manufacturing field. It focuses on the principles and advances of smart and stimuli-responsive materials and additive manufacturing and provides valuable insights and knowledge for researchers.

List of topic areas

The journal covers the following key topics:

• Advanced additive manufacturing techniques (3D printing, 4D printing, bioprinting, multi-material printing, robotic manufacturing, new processes, large scale manufacturing, hybrid manufacturing).
• Advanced manufacturing of soft robots, sensors, electronics, energy harvesters, shape memory alloys, shape memory polymers, and self-healing devices.
• Advanced simulation for additive manufacturing and multi-scale modelling.
• New multi-functional materials and biomaterials processing.
• Design for additive manufacturing using artificial intelligence and topological optimisation.
• Characterisation of advanced properties (morphing, mechanical, fatigue, aging, etc) for advanced manufacturing.
• Industrialization and applications enabled by 4D printing (health, mechanical, aerospace, automotive, sport, civil, etc)
