Research on and Practice of Additive Manufacturing Technologies

Abstract

Today, additive manufacturing technologies are becoming increasingly popular. In order to take advantage of the opportunities offered by these new technologies, a different way of thinking at the design stage needs to be adopted. This new design thinking must be introduced into engineering education. In order to achieve this at the right level, practical experience is needed in parallel with a theoretical background on the technologies. This paper provides a brief overview of my research and results in the field of additive manufacturing.
