Additive Manufacturing Handbook


Book Description

Theoretical and practical interests in additive manufacturing (3D printing) are growing rapidly. Engineers and engineering companies now use 3D printing to make prototypes of products before going for full production. In an educational setting faculty, researchers, and students leverage 3D printing to enhance project-related products. Additive Manufacturing Handbook focuses on product design for the defense industry, which affects virtually every other industry. Thus, the handbook provides a wide range of benefits to all segments of business, industry, and government. Manufacturing has undergone a major advancement and technology shift in recent years.

SPS2022


Book Description

The realization of a successful product requires collaboration between developers and producers, taking account of stakeholder value, reinforcing the contribution of industry to society and enhancing the wellbeing of workers while respecting planetary boundaries. Founded in 2006, the Swedish Production Academy (SPA) aims to drive and develop production research and education and to increase cooperation within the production area. This book presents the proceedings of the 10th Swedish Production Symposium (SPS2022), held in Skövde, Sweden, from 26-29 April 2022. The overall theme of the symposium was ‘Industry 5.0 Transformation – Towards a Sustainable, Human-Centric, and Resilient Production’. Since its inception in 2007, the purpose of SPS has been to facilitate an event at which members and interested participants from industry and academia can meet to exchange ideas. The 69 papers accepted for presentation here are grouped into ten sections: resource-efficient production; flexible production; humans in the production system; circular production systems and maintenance; integrated product and production development; industrial optimization and decision-making; cyber-physical production systems and digital twins; innovative production processes and additive manufacturing; smart and resilient supply chains; and linking research and education. Also included are three sections covering the Special Sessions at SPS2022: artificial intelligence and industrial analytics in industry 4.0; development of resilient and sustainable production systems; and boundary crossing and boundary objects in product and production development. The book will be of interest to all those involved in the development and production of future products.




Handbook of Research on Advanced Functional Materials for Orthopedic Applications


Book Description

Scaffold bone replacements are a safe and effective way to cure bone abnormalities, and porous scaffolds can be manufactured using additive manufacturing technology. When scaffolds are implanted in a damaged location, they quickly connect to the host tissue and integrate, stimulating bone production and development. The qualities of porous titanium must be matched to the properties of human bones (i.e., age, sex, and hormones). Using subtractive manufacturing, it is extremely difficult to create the complicated porous structure necessary for the desired characteristic. The Handbook of Research on Advanced Functional Materials for Orthopedic Applications highlights current research pertinent to the orthopedic applications of additive-produced scaffolds in order to consider the latest breakthroughs in the synthesis and multifunctional applications of scaffolds. Covering key topics such as tissue, additive manufacturing, and biomaterial, this major reference work is ideal for industry professionals, engineers, researchers, academicians, practitioners, scholars, instructors, and students.
