Abstract One of the major goals of this research is to develop a seamless, desktop, intelligent, computer-aided design environment to fabricate functional parts using a multi-material fused deposition manufacturing machine. The current research project has already developed tools for multi-material toolpath and virtual simulation of a layered fabrication left bracket 3,4 right bracket . A three-dimensional video microscopy is used to collect experimental data. The parts are fabricated using PZT, PMN-PT, silicone nitride and metals. Design of Experiment, DOE is being performed to quantify and predict void creation and elimination. Using our approach, a designer now could design, fabricate and verify the goals and alter both computation and fabrication parameters quickly. The design cycle has the potential to become faster and more creative. (Auth abstract) [References: 8] XX
