Abstract

With evolution and change in environment, Nature’s structures and its material system exists with products having multiple designs and dimensions. Inspired by Nature’s ability to develop structures with complexity, various research works are carried out to develop newer technology to build complex products with more design dimensions. In the process of bio mimicking nature’s fabrication process 3D printing has captured the imagination of everyone from industry to research experts. However, there are various challenges need to be addressed in the process of 3D printing related to material system and product functional dynamicity. Hence, to overcome the limitations of 3D printing in flexible product development, 4D printing was generated with one or more additional design dimensions. 4D printing invented by MIT research group relies on fast growth of smart materials, 3D printers, mathematical modelling and design, and shows advantages over 3D printing. This article presents a comprehensive overview of 4D printing concept, applications and future scope for research.
