Tool builders dealing with many different languages, and language designers require sophisticated pretty-print techniques to minimize the time needed for constructing and adapting pretty-printers. We combined new and existing pretty-print techniques in a generic pretty-printer that satisfies modern pretty-print requirements. Its features include language independence, customization, and increme...

A new method for the colorimetric characterization of a printer is proposed. It can also be applied to any other type of digital image reproduction device. The method is based on a computational geometry approach. It uses a 3D triangulation technique to build a tetrahedral partition of the printer color gamut volume and it generates a surrounding structure enclosing the definition domain. The c...

The original intention of a 3D printer is to show the design idea more concretely and vividly, but there are still some defects in actual use process, such as unable print objects sufficient volume, models with colorful colors, etc. Therefore, our team tried multi-functional integrated expand printing area enrich model colors.

The identification of particular molecular interactions therefore has been a crucial first step in many cellular studies. Traditionally, biochemical techniques have proven to be an effective indicator of interactions between two proteins of interest. These techniques are almost always limited to in vitro studies, however. More recently, technological advances in fluorescence microscopy and fluo...

Design-for-test (DFT) is essential to ensure that complex designs can be thoroughly tested. Testing demands continue to increase as designs grow in gate count and fabrication process technologies evolve. Fortunately, advances in DFT techniques have avoided major design requirements and restrictions for test. In fact, some approaches have reduced the impact of test on designs. Structured DFT tec...

Preliminary experiments have shown that the quality of printed images depends on the capacity of the printing system to accurately reproduce details. We propose to improve the quality of printed images by compensating for the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) of the printing system. The MTF of the printing system is measured using the method proposed by Jang and Allebach, in which test pages c...

This paper presents a novel experimental design for complex structural health monitoring (SHM) studies achieved by integrating 3D printing technologies, high-resolution laser displacement sensors, and multiscale entropy SHM theory. A seven-story structure with a variety of composite bracing systems was constructed using a dual-material 3D printer. A wireless Bluetooth vibration speaker was used...

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) is a unique prototyping technology that has advanced over the past 35 years and has the great potential to revolutionize the field of drug delivery with its inherent advantages of customizability and the ability to fabricate complex solid dosage forms with high accuracy and precision. 3DP can fabricate solid dosage forms with variable densities and diffusivities...

Laser powder bed fusion is widely used for tooling applications, such as mould insert: conformal cooling channels are designed to decrease cycling time and homogenize the rate. The Achilles’ heel of additive manufacturing close surface which generate high stress concentration not machined; a result, they create weaknesses in part likely reduce lifespan mould. It necessary study impact on proper...

The correct display of edges in half-toned images is nec­ essary for accurate image reproduction. This problem has been addressed by pre-processing the image to en­ hance the edges or by altering the half-toning algorithm to account for edges. In this paper we present a post­ processing edge enhancement technique that is applicar ble to all half-toning algorithms. We identify two types of edge ...
