A Framework for Adaptive Width Control of Dense Contour-Parallel Toolpaths in Fused Deposition Modeling
TL;DR: This paper presents a framework which supports multiple schemes to generate toolpaths with adaptive width, by employing a function to decide the number of beads and their widths and proposes a novel scheme which reduces extreme bead widths, while limiting thenumber of altered tool Paths.

CrossFill : Foam Structures with Graded Density for Continuous Material Extrusion
TL;DR: A new type of density graded structure that is particularly designed for 3D printing systems based on filament extrusion, called CrossFill, which is a self-supporting foam structure, for which each layer is fabricated by a single, continuous and overlap-free path of material extrusion.
Hatching for 3D prints: Line-based halftoning for dual extrusion fused deposition modeling
TL;DR: The proposed halftoning technique is not limited by the challenges existing techniques face; existing FDM coloring techniques greatly influence the surface geometry and deteriorate with surface slopes deviating from vertical or greatly influenceThe basic parameters of the printing process and thereby the structural properties of the resulting product.

CrossFill: Foam Structures with Graded Density for Continuous Material Extrusion
TL;DR: CrossFill as mentioned in this paper is a self-supporting foam structure, for which each layer is fabricated by a single, continuous and overlap-free path of material extrusion, and a method for generating CrossFill is based on a space-filling surface that employs spatially varying subdivision levels.
ITIL: Interlaced Topologically Interlocking Lattice for continuous dual-material extrusion
TL;DR: In this paper, a topologically interlocking lattice (ITIL) is proposed to ensure continuous extrusion and ensure an interlock even for highly flexible materials, which can be applied to non-vertical interfaces.
