A novel strain rate enhanced shape memory polymer composite was developed and subsequently integrated with polyethylene terephthalate films to fabricate self folding structures. Here, we propose a universal applicable method for 4d printing self folding smps by pre stretching extruded filaments during 3d printing, the temporary shape of the smps were designed and fixed during 3d printing. Here we demonstrate sequential self folding structures realized by thermal activation of spatially variable patterns that are 3d printed with digital shape memory polymers, which are.

We present a new shape memory composite capable of folding millimeter scale features. this technique can be activated by a global heat source for simultaneous folding, or by resistive heaters for sequential folding. By scaling shape memory composites down, integrating new materials, and demonstrating pop up style folding, these results represent a link between self folding techniques and fold based mesoscale manufacturing. This paper presents three approaches to the self folding of structures using low cost, rapid prototyped shape memory laminates, and compares the fabrication of a fundamental structure using each approach, and test ways to control fold angles in each case. Here we demonstrate sequential self folding structures realized by thermal activation of spatially variable patterns that are 3d printed with digital shape memory polymers, which are digital materials with different shape memory behaviors.
