Nanotechnology-Based Additive Manufacturing Product Design, Properties, and Applications

State-of-the-art overview of additive manufacturing techniques with an emphasis on processes, product designs and applications

This book offers a thorough overview of additive manufacturing technologies, including manufacturing requirements, product design, optimization of processes and product parameters to reduce manufacturing costs. It provides a comprehensive and state-of-the-art review on various additive manufacturing technologies, their advantages, shortcomings, potential applications and future directions. Sample topics discussed by the three well-qualified editors on the topic of additive manufacturing include:

• Areas of application in the fields of electronics, aerospace, construction, automobile, sports and biomedicine
• Material considerations, the requirement of specific design, fabrication and processing methods
• Advantages and disadvantages of various 3D printing techniques for the respectively intended applications

This book is an immensely valuable resource for researchers working in the field of additive manufacturing or 3D printing, or for developers dealing with the processing and manufacturing of materials and products for advanced technologies.
