Implicit modeling for additive manufacturing
Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology distinguishes itself from more traditional fabrication processes by several significant factors. It allows the creation of objects with complex geometry that would not be possible by subtractive manufacturing or molding. Additionally, 3d printers are of much simpler use than other tools. Finally, since the cost per objects does not change depending on the ...
متن کاملTopology Optimization for Additive Manufacturing
This paper gives an overview of the issues and opportunities for the application of topology optimization methods for additive manufacturing (AM). The main analysis issues discussed are: how to achieve the maximum geometric resolution to allow the fine features easily manufacturable by AM to be represented in the optimization model; the manufacturing constraints to be considered, and the workfl...
متن کاملSustainability Characterization for Additive Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing (AM) has the potential to create geometrically complex parts that require a high degree of customization, using less material and producing less waste. Recent studies have shown that AM can be an economically viable option for use by the industry, yet there are some inherent challenges associated with AM for wider acceptance. The lack of standards in AM impedes its use fo...
متن کاملLiving Additive Manufacturing
Living organisms such as bacteria are able to grow, respond to stimuli, and divide as part of their life cycle. Designing smart three-dimensional (3D) materials that are able to perform such feats, i.e., continue on-demand growth and respond to external stimuli, is always a challenge for polymer and material scientists. At present, Johnson and co-workers have made a significant step forward in ...
متن کاملOptimization of Supports in Metal-based Additive Manufacturing by Means of Finite Element Models
Metal-based additive manufacturing processes require a supporting of overhanging part areas during the powder solidification e. g. for improving the heat dissipation to the substrate. Technology users nowadays strive to reduce support areas due to economical aspects, while simultaneously enhancing the process stability by maximizing the support stiffness. For the simplification and acceleration...
