  • Descrição: Clay, just like other natural, paste-like materials, offers a potential reduction in the embodied CO2 that the production of buildings using conventional materials emits, yet its large tolerances during printing remain an obstacle. In paste-based 3D printing, the material dries and shrinks at unpredictable rates while new layers continue to be deposited, causing increased self-weight onto the lower layers that are subjected to variable displacement. The ability to anticipate and correct the complex material behavior during the extrusion process is important in the effort to achieve accurate building components and assembly. While a possible approach is highly specialized models or workflows guiding designers to understand and model material and process variances, comprehensive models or workflows dealing with the nonlinearity of paste-based 3D printing processes are still lacking. Nonetheless, these processes promise efficient, waste-free, and sustainable production workflows at the architectural and building scale. This dissertation investigates how computational techniques based on machine learning models can enable rapid assessment and calibration of design solutions before fabrication, allowing for the prediction and simulation of final geometrical outcomes for accurate printing. The research contributes to digital fabrication by connecting digital design processes with material outcomes through a data-centered framework that leverages machine learning in novel ways. The framework offers: 1) a scanning method for a real-time calibration workflow that corrects the printing trajectories of the design object and serves as a rapid data-collection technique for machine learning applications; 2) a method for building an optimized dataset to evaluate the printability of design solutions; and 3) a method for training neural network models to calibrate the printing trajectories before fabrication. Tested in the context of clay lattice printing, an unorthodox extrusion scenario characterized by a large feature space and high material uncertainty, the framework demonstrated the ability to evaluate and calibrate the toolpath geometry of clay lattices with sufficient accuracy for manufacturing while using minimal resources, presenting an important step toward next-generation solutions for sustainable 3D printing.
