Abstract There is high interest in the synergism of thin-film and flexible electronics with additive manufacturing. This review primarily focuses on prospective developments convergence manufacturing technologies. Specifically, this paper covers latest 3D printing hybrid technologies, utility specific types materials, their functionalization characterization, post-processing testing strategies ...

During the last decade, incremental forming is an innovative processing method which has been strongly investigated. Its potential as a flexible manufacturing method was noticed. This paper aims to present a comparative study of the recent worldwide developments in the field of incremental sheet forming (ISF), as a flexible method for manufacturing hollow metal parts. There are pointed out its ...

Over the last four decades of research, numerous cell formation algorithms have been developed and tested, still this research remains of interest to this day. Appropriate manufacturing cells formation is the first step in designing a cellular manufacturing system. In cellular manufacturing, consideration to manufacturing flexibility and productionrelated data is vital for cell formation....
