Using FDM printer with thermoplastic filament, we were able to encode shape-memory effect in sheet-like 3D prints that will transform into pre-programmed 2.5D shapes.
But let's bedazzle the single-colored print with color textures, which is achieved by screen printing.
While the main focus of this project is to encode stress information of the material using geometry-based optimization algorithm, I focused on developing the technique of screen printing that work with this particular material (PLA) and surface features.
It has been a great experience for me to combine digital fabrication with crafting skills.
