Design for Additive Manufacturing: Recent Innovations and Future Directions

Future Directions for the Organizational Readiness for Knowledge Translation (OR4KT) Tool: Response to Recent Commentaries

Recent Progress and Future Directions

We review the foundations of Einstein’s general theory of relativity, discuss recent progress in the tests of relativistic gravity, and present motivations for new generation of high-accuracy gravitational experiments. We discuss the advances in our understanding of fundamental physics anticipated in the near future and evaluate discovery potential of the recently proposed gravitational experim...

MEMS - Recent Developments, Future Directions

This report deals with the field of micro-electromechanical systems, or MEMS. MEMS encompass the process-based technologies used to fabricate tiny integrated devices and/or systems that integrate functionalities from different physical domains into one device. Such devices are fabricated using a wide range of technologies, having in common the ability to create structures with microand even nan...

New Directions in Design for Manufacturing

This paper gives an overview of research that is expanding the domain of design for manufacturing (DFM) into new and important areas. This paper covers DFM and concurrent engineering, DFM for conceptual design, DFM for embodiment design, DFM for detailed design, design for production, platform design for reducing time-to-market, design for system quality, design for life cycle costs, and design...

Anthrax prophylaxis: recent advances and future directions

Anthrax is a serious, potentially fatal disease that can present in four distinct clinical patterns depending on the route of infection (cutaneous, gastrointestinal, pneumonic, or injectional); effective strategies for prophylaxis and therapy are therefore required. This review addresses the complex mechanisms of pathogenesis employed by the bacterium and describes how, as understanding of thes...
