Descripción

Design for Additive Manufacturing Fundamentals: Principles, Techniques, and Design Strategies outlines design approaches, techniques, and principles for the optimal additive manufacturing of metals and polymers. Sections cover the concept of design optimization for additive manufacturing (DoAM), outlining the primary steps in the additive manufacturing (AM) workflow and emphasizing the pivotal role DoAM plays in both the design and manufacturing processes. Opportunities and constraints are discussed, as are the different AM techniques available with pros and cons each weighed. Subsequent chapters cover specific design strategies, simulation for AM production processes, generative design approaches for AM structures, and topology optimization techniques.

It concludes with chapters focused on strategies and design approaches for lattices and porous structures, design for post-processing in AM, and finally a chapter on the future of DoAM.

Ian Gibson

Ian Gibson is a professor in Industrial Design Engineering and Scientific Director of the University's Fraunhofer Project Centre in complex systems engineering at the University of Twente. His first teaching position was at Nottingham University in 1992, where he was introduced to Rapid Prototyping, which is now more commonly known as 3D Printing (3DP) or Additive Manufacturing (AM). Ian has spent the last 25+ years working with this extremely enabling technology to solve problems in healthcare, automotive, aerospace, and other industrial sectors by engaging in applied research. In 2017, Ian was awarded the Freeform and Additive Manufacturing Excellence (FAME) award in the US for his contribution to the academic AM community, something that only 9 other people have so far received.
