The 4th Å·ÃÀ¾ÞÈé 4D Materials Design and Additive Manufacturing Conference 2025 (4DMDA 2025) is organised by the 4D Printing Society in partnership with A*star’s Research Institutes and Universities.

The event will take place on July 8-10, 2025 in person at the Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC), Singapore. It aims to bring together the most recent research on a variety of exciting topics such as (but not limited to):

  • Design methods for smart materials and additive manufacturing using computational techniques (artificial intelligence, optimization, geometric reasoning, etc.)
  • Development of new functional and active materials.
  • Characterization methods for functional and active materials.
  • Design of metamaterials and megastructures.
  • Advanced additive manufacturing techniques of smart materials (multi-material techniques, hybrid additive manufacturing, closed-loop 3D printing, bioprinting, etc.).
  • Advanced modelling and simulation (mechanics of materials, constitutive modelling, shape memory effects, multi-physics, stimuli-responsive, coupling effects, etc.).
  • Industrialization and applications (health, aerospace, automotive, defence, civil, etc.).

The 4D Printing Society invites abstracts and papers from researchers, students, and working professionals from academia as well as industry within the scope of the conference topics.
