UCSD Researchers 3D Print Shape-Shifting Liquid Crystal Elastomers
A team of materials science and engineering researchers from UC San Diego (UCSD) closely studied the qualities of liquid crystal elastomers, or LCEs, in order to figure out how to…
3D Printing Liquid Crystal Elastomers to Mimic Human Tissue
Biological tissues are amazing materials. Over the years, our biological tissues mature and change so they can provide exactly what’s needed for their individual function, like how elastic cartilage can…
