Closed-cell self-expanding foam (spray foam) is an amazing material that sees common use in construction. But one application ...

There are myriad of uses for 3D printers in industrial, research, and consumer applications. The catch in those applications is that the printed objects have to be smaller than the machine that makes ...

It's a frustrating limitation of 3D printing: Printed objects must be smaller than the machine making them. Huge machines are impractical for printing large parts because they take up too much space ...

From seat cushions to mattresses to insulation, foam is everywhere—even if we don't always see it. Now, researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas have fused chemistry with technology to create ...

When natural disaster strikes, a building’s survival often depends on how it’s built. Engineers at Carnegie Mellon University have created a fast, highly accurate simulator for spray-based concrete 3D ...

Many firms and startups are trying to apply the techniques of 3D printing to building construction, including upscaling the tech to 3D-print entire structures from the ground up. But Chattanooga, Tenn ...

Researchers have created a 3D printing robot that uses organic materials to build some truly stunning sandcastles. Researchers have created a 3D printing robot that uses organic materials to build ...

Researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas have fused chemistry with technology to create a 3D-printed foam that is more durable and more recyclable than the polymer foam found in many everyday ...
