Ultrasonic additive manufacturing (UAM), a solid-state technology, was invented in 1999 by Dawn White [...]

Ultrafast lasers are proven and continually evolving manufacturing tools. Concurrently, additive (AM) has emerged as a key area of interest for 3D fabrication objects with arbitrary geometries. Use ultrafast AM presents possibilities next generation techniques hard-to-process materials, transparent micro- nano-manufacturing. Of particular selective laser melting/sintering (SLM/SLS), multiphoton...
