The TMS cited Brown for «distinguished contributions to advancing the field of material
dynamic mechanical properties and damage processes, while providing long - standing service to TMS and the materials community.»
The ability to create objects that change shape in a controlled sequence over time is enabled by printing multiple materials with different
dynamic mechanical properties in prescribed patterns throughout the 3 - D object.
«We are now extending this concept of digital SMPs to enable printing of SMPs with
dynamic mechanical properties that vary continuously in 3 - D space.»

ARL created a generalized model using an energetic formulation approach, which was key in identifying two important mechanisms for enabling high bending motion in soft biological actuators: (i) tuning physical
properties (
mechanical and geometric) via exploiting the interplay between the materials and
dynamic nonlinearities to augment the motion; and (ii) highlighting the electromechanical coupling between the electrical field and nonlinear structural stiffness through the distributive actuation circuitries.
