4D Materials Design and Additive Manufacturing Conference 2022

The first international 4D Materials Design and Additive Manufacturing 2022 (4DMDA 2022) Conference is organized by the 4D Printing Society. The conference will showcase the latest developments and technologies in smart materials, intelligent designs, modeling, additive manufacturing, and 3D/4D printing, alongside the current issues of concern in the further development of 3D/4D printed devices. 4DMDA 2022 will provide a forum for internationally recognized experts and young scientists working in the fields of smart materials, advanced modeling, and 3D/4D printing technologies to present their work.

4D Materials Design and Additive Manufacturing Conference 2022  aims to bring together the most recent research on a variety of exciting topics such as (but not limited to):

Design methods for smart materials and additive manufacturing using artificial intelligence, topological optimization, etc.
New materials, design, and functionalities (digital materials, auxetics, lattices, metamaterials, smart materials in robotics, biomaterials, 3D/4D-printed soft robots, etc.)
Advanced additive manufacturing techniques of smart materials (4D printing, bioprinting, multi-material printing, AM processes, hybrid AM, closed-loop 3D printing, etc.)
Advanced modeling and simulation (mechanics of materials, constitutive modeling, shape memory effects, multi-physics, stimuli-responsive, coupling effects, etc.)
Characterization and innovative properties (morphing, mechanical, fatigue, aging, etc.)
Industrialization and applications (health, aerospace, automotive, defense, civil, etc.)
Current issues of concern in the further development of 4D materials, design, and additive manufacturing.
The 4D Printing Society invites abstracts and papers from researchers, students, and working professionals from academia as well as industry within the scope of the conference subjects.

This conference will be hosted as an online event and take place on September 1-2, 2022.
