Interactions of an Additive Manufacturing Program with Society
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012-08-16)
Additive Manufacturing (AM) has shown considerable promise for the future but also
proposes some challenges. Many AM barriers tend to be non-technical and instead are humancentric issues such as lack of education of ...
Efficient Three Dimensional Modelling of Additive Manufactured Textile Structures
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012)
Textile structures realised by Additive Manufacturing (AM) techniques have received
increasing attention during the previous decade. Due to their potential to significantly
improve upon both the geometric complexity and ...
Ask Not What Additive Manufacturing Can Do For You...
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012)
The paraphrase of John F Kennedy’s famous words is for 2 purposes. Firstly it is to
acknowledge that there are some people who have considered that it is a major part of their life’s
work to promote Additive Manufacturing ...
Additive Manufacturing Education in the UK
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012)
There has been and continues to be a considerable effort regarding education for
Additive Manufacturing (AM) in the UK. This generally started in 1992 with a seminar
organised by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers ...
Combining Additive Manufacturing with Computer Aided Consumer Design
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012)
This paper reports an investigation into the potential for consumers designing and
manufacturing their own products using a combination of “Computer Aided Consumer Design”
(CaCODE) and Additive Manufacturing (AM). Recent ...
Novel Integrated Fluid-Power Actuators for Functional End-Use Components and Systems via Selective Laser Sintering Nylon 12
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012-08-18)
The Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) and the Additive Manufacturing (AM)
community have an interest in expanding applications of AM and broadening market
opportunities. Specific areas of interest include robotics ...
Designing Material Properties Locally with Additive Manufacturing Technology SLM
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012-08-16)
Additive Manufacturing technologies are known to allow the production of parts with an extreme
degree of complexity, enabling design and functional part optimization. So far the development of
processing parameters and ...
A Designer's Guide for Dimensioning and Tolerancing SLS Parts
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012)
Because additive manufacturing (AM) is a relatively novel industry, with the first
commercial machines introduced in the late 1980s, many designers are unaware of the
capabilities of AM technologies. Many engineers also ...
First Steps Towards Collaboratively Edited Design for Additive Manufacturing Knowledge
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012-08-18)
Despite the broad coverage concerning the technological challenges, little research has been performed
on the methods that enable designers to deal with Additive Manufacturing. At present, the challenge is to
generate ...
Combined Build-Time, Energy Consumption and Cost Estimation for Direct Metal Laser Sintering
(University of Texas at Austin, 2012-08-15)
As a single-step process, Additive Manufacturing (AM) affords full measurability
with respect to process energy inputs and production cost. However, the parallel character of
AM (allowing the contemporaneous production ...
