Piezoelectric Materials for 3D Printing. Processing and Applications (en Inglés) - Rupinder Singh;Ranvijay Kumar;J. Paulo Davim

The emergence of innovative piezoelectric materials has revolutionized the 3D printing domain, and its integration has extended the development of 4D/5D printing, smart structures, energy harvesters, sensors, actuators, capacitors, and self-powered devices. Indeed, its feature of generating electrical energy under the action of mechanical stress makes it a unique material. Scientific research focuses on process integration, materials formulation, printing resolution, process optimization, scalability and integration of processes with artificial intelligence and machine learning. This book aims to deliver the knowledge and information about processing/reprocessing of piezoelectric materials by 3D printing for innovative applications.
