Physical Library

Physical part of RepMat Library

The vhysical part of the library focuses on a direct approach with materials by interacting with them through the senses. Physical material samples, part cut-offs, possible products and applications can be directly touched and experienced by the users, supporting experiential learning approaches. Furthermore, the hands-on activities in replicating or improving this part is also meant to let the users directly experience and learn how to exploit these materials and technologies by using them in first person.

The physical structures contain the samples showcased in the virtual part of the library (Materials Library, Product Library). Each of them has been identified with a specific name to facilitate identification and comparison. The name is composed by three different codes Gxx_Tyy, i.e., G01_T03:
Gxx Materials and Products main group.
Tyy Products main spatial structure.
