AI-Powered Nano-3D Printing Creates Super Strong, Lightweight Material
2025-01-28
Researchers at the University of Toronto have used machine learning to design nano-architected materials with the strength of carbon steel but the lightness of Styrofoam. By combining a machine learning algorithm with two-photon polymerization 3D printing, the team optimized the nanolattice structure, achieving a strength-to-weight ratio five times higher than titanium. This breakthrough holds potential for aerospace applications, reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
