چکیده

In this position paper, the current and potential contributions of three-dimensional printing to the fashion retail industry in a mass customization context is questioned. This is considered from a user-centered design perspective, focusing on the ability and problems in utilizing user-generated design while curating brand loyalty, acceptance, and value. A series of research questions are positioned as pivotal to resolving the customization benefit/disbenefit paradox presented in this paper.

Mass Customization: Reuse of Topology Information to Accelerate Slicing Process for Continuous Liquid Interface Production

Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, constructs a 3D object in a layer by layer fashion. Comparing to traditional manufacturing technologies, it can build objects with complex individualized features with little extra effort. This characteristic endows additive manufacturing with the potential to realize mass customization. Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP), a new...

(Re) Making the Procrustean Bed? Standardization and Customization as Competing Logics in Healthcare

Recent years have witnessed a parallel and seemingly contradictory trend towards both the standardization and the customization of healthcare and medical treatment. Here, we explore what is meant by ‘standardization’ and ‘customization’ in healthcare settings and explore the implications of these changes for healthcare delivery. We frame the paradox of these divergent and opposing factors in te...

3D Numerical Study on Scouring Around Bridge Piers Under Unsteady Flow Condition

Local scouring around the bridges piers has always been considered as a problem, especially in rivers. If we do not take the necessary actions to avoid the occurrence of this phenomenon or to reduce its influence, then the bridge's piers will be destroyed. Placing the bridge piers' foundation far from the earth's surface will turn out in a plan which is not economic at all. Experimental studies...
