Influence of Extruded Filament Shape on Buildability in 3D Concrete Printing: A Geometry-Informed Deep Learning-FEM Approach

The paper presents a geometry‑informed modeling framework that couples a deep‑learning filament shape predictor (ShapeGen3DCP) with a layer‑activation finite element method to assess buildability in 3D concrete printing. By generating realistic filament geometries directly from material and process parameters, the approach eliminates the need for experimental filament characterization or fluid‑flow simulations. Validation and parametric studies show that extrusion parameters and filament shape significantly affect buildability predictions, especially for free‑flow deposition, and that an elliptical approximation balances fidelity and simplicity while volume‑conserving rectangular representations improve prediction reliability.

Physics-Informed and Hybrid Machine Learning in Additive Manufacturing: Application to Fused Filament Fabrication

The article explores physics-informed and hybrid machine learning approaches for predicting bond quality and porosity in fused filament fabrication (FFF) parts. It examines three strategies—embedding physics constraints in the loss function, adding physics model outputs as inputs, and pre‑training with physics data—to enforce consistency with physical laws. Eight combinations of these strategies are tested, showing that integrating multiple approaches yields accurate predictions even with limited experimental data.

CADFit: Precise Mesh-to-CAD Program Generation with Hybrid Optimization

arXiv:2605. 01171v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite recent progress, recovering parametric CAD construction sequences from geometric input, such as meshes or point clouds, is a key challenge for design and manufacturing, as existing CAD reconstruction and generation methods are largely restricted to difficult-to-edit formats like meshes or Breps or editable simple sketch-and-extrude pipelines and low-complexity datasets.

Language-Augmented Semantic Priors for B-Spline Surface Fitting

The paper introduces LASP, a framework that uses large language models to generate structured B‑spline priors from procedural modeling histories. By translating design intent into rich textual descriptions, LASP provides semantic reasoning that guides conventional CAD solvers toward more accurate and coherent surface fitting. Experiments show that language‑driven priors outperform traditional machine learning approaches, establishing a new paradigm for language‑guided geometric optimization.

Fluid-SDF: Ultra-Lightweight and Editable Implicit Shape Representation via Differentiable Primitives

Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have become the standard for continuous 2D shape modeling, but they suffer from black-box uneditability, vulnerability to noise, and high parameter counts that severely hinder deployment on edge devices. We introduce Fluid-SDF, a highly compressed, differentiable Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) framework that models shapes using explicit geometric primitives blended via a smooth minimum function.
