I wanted to analyze how the sound of a violin changes when it is 3D printed. Naturally, its physical properties differ from those of a traditional violin; the material exhibits anisotropic characteristics distinct from wood, and variations arise depending on the choice of printing method.



For this particular violin, I used the standard grid infill pattern. However, this project was never completed. Not only because I lacked the time to dedicate to the printing, but also because there were various issues (e.g. the need to split the top plate in half) that could have been resolved simply by using a larger 3D printer. So, I lost the motivation to put in the effort required to overcome these issues.
I also plan to further simplify the problem and solve it step by step. Inquiries from interested researchers are very welcomed at any time.
