This project aims to facilitate the design and manufacture of specialised objects that can change their shape over time. These types of objects are made from ‘tuneable metamaterials’, which can be made by 4D printing: 3D printing with an added dimension of time. These materials are becoming indispensable in many fields- including non-metallic soft robots used in medicine or the exploration of harsh environments like space- but are currently onerous to make. This project will develop a revolutionary new method for a user to work backward from defining the desired qualities to the manufacture of the object that satisfies their needs. It will also create a library that will allow users to quickly select a material that will be appropriate.

该项目旨在促进可以随着时间的推移改变其形状的专用物体的设计和制造。这些类型的对象是由“可调的超材料”制成的，可以通过4D打印来制作：3D打印具有附加时间的尺寸。这些材料在许多领域都必须在许多领域（包括用于医学中使用的非金属软机器人或探索太空之类的Harmsh环境），但目前繁重的。该项目将开发一种革命性的新方法，使用户从定义所需质量到满足其需求的对象的制造。它还将创建一个库，该库将允许用户快速选择适合的材料。
