The field of microstructure analysis and manufacturing is witnessing significant developments, with a focus on improving the accuracy and efficiency of numerical simulations and manufacturing processes. Researchers are exploring new methods for meshing and remeshing microstructures, such as hierarchical diffusion-based approaches, to enhance the quality of discretization and preserve surface morphology. Additionally, there is a growing interest in symmetry-projection techniques to enforce expected symmetries in postprocessing and reduce errors in homogenization simulations. Innovative manufacturing methods, such as 3D Fiber Tethering, are being developed to create complex 3D architectures with continuous fiber reinforcement, enabling the production of lightweight and high-strength composite structures. Noteworthy papers in this area include: Rapid Manufacturing of Lightweight Drone Frames Using Single-Tow Architected Composites, which demonstrates the potential of single tow lattice truss-based drone frames with 3DFiT serving as a scalable and efficient manufacturing method. Morphology-Preserving Remeshing Approach to Particulate Microstructures via Harmonic Decomposition, which proposes an efficient hierarchical diffusion-based approach for resampling the surface to yield an equalized mesh triangulation.
