Large programmable coefficient of thermal expansion in additively manufactured bi-material mechanical metamaterial

The current metamaterials with the programmable coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) usually present the unexpected anisotropy, and the experimentally measured CTEs are quite narrower. Here, a bi-material metamaterial was constructed. The material extrusion process was established to fabricate the...
