Virtual and Rapid Manufacturing: Advanced

This book contains papers presented at the 3rd International Conference on Advanced Research in Virtual and Rapid Prototyping, held at the Centre for Rapid and Sustainable Product Development, School of Technology and Management of the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, Portugal, from September 24-29, 2007. It represents a significant contribution to virtual and rapid prototyping (V&RP) issues as it contains topical research in this field. The book is an essential reading for all those working on V&RP, promoting better links between industry and academia. Papers cover a wide range of important topics like biomanufacturing, advanced rapid prototyping technologies, rapid tooling and manufacturing, micro-fabrication, 3D CAD and data acquisition, and collaborative design
