A computing system may include a metamaterial representation engine configured to represent a metamaterial of a three-dimensional (3D) object as program code. The metamaterial may define an internal geometry of the 3D object and may be configured to be physically constructed via additive manufacturing. Representation of the metamaterial as program code may include assigning a value of a code parameter of the metamaterial as a probability distribution. The computing system may also include a metamaterial analysis engine configured to analyze the metamaterial through the probability distribution assigned for the value of the code parameter of the program code.

A computing system may include a data access engine and a toolpath adjustment engine. The data access engine may be configured to access a computer-aided design (CAD) model of a part design and a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) setup for the part design. The CAM setup may include a nominal toolpath specified through the CAD model for performing a finishing operation for the part design. The data access engine may also be configured to obtain 3-dimensional (3D) scan data for a physical part manufactured from the part design. The toolpath adjustment engine may be configured to extract, from the 3D scan data, a manufactured geometry of the physical part manufactured from the part design and generate an adjusted toolpath for the physical part to account for the manufactured geometry extracted from the 3D scan data.
