Additive manufacturing of compliance optimized variable stiffness composites through short fiber alignment along curvilinear paths
Short fiber-reinforcement has been used to improve the structural performance of extrusion based 3D printed polymer materials. The converging nozzle preferentially orients the short fibers along the printing direction. By locally steering the print paths to orient the fiber directions, the benefit o...
