 Assistant Professor Robert MacCurdy and doctoral student Charles Wade have created an open-source software package that uses functions and code to map not just shapes but where different materials belong in a 3D object. The project has the potential to transform 3D printing by enabling engineers to design multi-material objects more smartly and efficiently.
