THE doctorate thesis.

This paper presents an interactive design system that allows the user to create and fabricate stylized sculptures in water-based clay, using a standard 6-axis robot arm.

We present an interactive design system that allows users to create sculpting styles and fabricate clay models using a standard 6-axisrobot arm.

This paper present a computational technique that aids with the design of structurally‐sound metal frames, tailored for robotic fabrication using an existing process that integrate automated bar bending, welding, and cutting.

Four cellular-based material structure units composed of rigid plates and elastic/rotary hinges was developed based on the geometrical and numerical description of the units. Using these base structures, higher level transformations for product design was achieved through a customised simulation tool for interactive design process. Three application prototypes was presented as possible applications of our proposed structures.
