Morphology

manifolding = manifold (semi-transparent) = manifold + ing

The form is a straightforward -ing nominalization of the verb 'manifold', but the engineering sense is specialized enough that learners may not fully infer it.

Etymology

Manifolding comes from parts that mean many ('many') and fold ('fold'), so imagine one pipe 'folding' into many channels like the branches of a tree. That's why manifolding names the process or system that connects and sends fluids or gases into many outlets.
