Laying the Groundwork for STEAM: Scaling and Supporting 3D Design and Printing in Higher Education

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2022
This perspective article outlines the design and development of a 3D Printing Ecosystem (3DPE) that aims to lay the groundwork for STEAM education. The 3DPE is a coordinated system of hardware, software, and people that has been intentionally designed to

Effect of disconnection of deformable units on the mobility and stiffness of 3D prismatic modular origami structures using angular kinematics

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Architected modular origami structures show potential for future robotic matter owing to their reconfigurability with multiple mobilities. Similar to modular robots, the units of modular origami structures do not need to be assembled in a fully packed ...

Traceability and modularity in software design [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings Ninth International Workshop on Software Specification and Design, 2002
A software design specification consists of a number of documents that describe various aspect of the design at different levels of detail, that are linked in many ways. This paper shows how different designs may use different modularization criteria, and how documents describing these designs may be linked in a coherent way, even if the designs use ...

Modularity in support of design for re-use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We explore the structuring principle of modularity with the objective of analysing its current ability to meet the requirements of a 're-use' centred approach to design. We aim to highlight the correlation's between modular design and 're-use', and argue

Modular design towards the circular economy – From ‘making to unmake’ to ‘making to remake'

open access: yesAgathón, 2023
Given the recent debate regarding the transition to the Circular Economy, Design for Modularity strategies play a decisive role in the process of transforming the current economic model from linear to circular.

Making a Case for Modularity

open access: yesCubic Journal, 2020
What we design and how it is made are intimately connected. The need to make modular components is a consequence of construction methodology and disposition in production and manufacturing.

Development of a Modular Tensegrity Robot Arm Capable of Continuous Bending

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021
In this study, we present a tensegrity robot arm that can reproduce the features of complex musculoskeletal structures, and can bend like a continuum manipulator.
