Material programming for 4D-printing

Material programming denotes a design method in which functions such as movement are encoded in the physical material and fabrication logic, in place of electronics and digital control. Plants respond to their surroundings because of their functionally graded internal structures — similarly, when materials are structured at the meso-scale, they can be programmed to change shape in response to the environment.
