Evolutionary Programming and Intelligent Control for Additive Manufacturing of Shape-Morphing Structures

Obiettivo

The EPIC-AM project (Evolutionary Programming and Intelligent Control for Additive Manufacturing of Shape-Morphing Structures) aims to overcome the current fragmentation between materials science, AI-assisted design, and advanced manufacturing by establishing a closed-loop, evidence-driven workflow for programmable smart metastructures. While smart materials and digital twins have progressed significantly, they rarely operate as a unified system capable of scaling to industrial production. EPIC-AM closes this gap by introducing a novel twin-informed design-to-manufacture paradigm. The project will: (i) develop and characterise advanced smart materials—including shape-memory alloys and self-healing polymers—generating AM-conditioned material cards and qualified interface specifications; (ii) deliver an evolutionary design and simulation framework that couples topology optimisation with AI-driven surrogates and digital twins; (iii) advance multi-material 4D/6D printing protocols equipped with robust in-process monitoring; and (iv) deploy a cloud-native digital platform that integrates IoT telemetry, cybernetic control, and circular economy (CE) indicators directly into the lifecycle management. This integrated approach is validated through three sector-relevant flagship demonstrators: programmable bio-actuators (biomedical), automated self-solar-tracking structures (energy), and circular auxetic bumpers (automotive). Crucially, as an MSCA Staff Exchanges action, EPIC-AM relies on the intersectoral and international physical mobility of researchers to transfer tacit knowledge that cannot be exchanged remotely. By circulating staff among academic institutions, industrial SMEs, and Third Country partners, theoretical AI algorithms and computational mechanics models are effectively deployed on industrial shop floors. At the same time, real-world manufacturing constraints, telemetry, and validation evidence are continuously fed back into academic simulators.
