Gradient Control Laboratories

Lattices offer the potential to change the world of advanced manufacturing, but a lack of common knowledge impedes their application. There’s prevasive data about their geometry, manufacturing, and applications, but finding the right combination is an inherent lottery, hampering innovation. 

LatticeRobot closes this gap by bringing together a community of engineers into a computationally enhanced working space to aggregate and explore the world’s knowledge of volume and surface lattices, as well as manufacturing surface textures, metamaterial properties, and other properties associated with mesoscale geometry such as composites and multi-material structures.  LatticeRobot is the place where engineers can start their journey to deliver innovation; it’s an engaging, interactive experience for both those new to lattice engineering and seasoned research professionals. Engineers may learn what lattices maximize performance for a desired application and what materials and manufacturing processes work best with which structures.  Now, everyone can understand how periodic versus stochastic, open versus closed cell, and bend versus stretch dominated geometries relate to the elastic, yield, failure, energy absorption, thermal, fluid-dynamic, and electromagnetic properties of their products.
