UNIT I INTRODUCTION
Introduction to Advanced manufacturing types and processes. Emergence of 3D printing and AM, additive manufacturing. Differences between AM, additive manufacturing design process vs. conventional DTM, design theory and methodology, with respect life-cycle objectives. Additive manufacturing applications for rapid prototyping to the end-of-use product manufacturing process. Additive Manufacturing Application Domains: Aerospace, Electronics, Health Care, Defense, Automotive, Construction, Food Processing,
UNIT II ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING AND 3D PRINTING ENABLED DESIGN PROCESS
Design thinking and advanced manufacturing. Parametric design and additive manufacturing. Rapid prototyping, rapid tooling and Rapid manufacturing. Design and shape complexity, material complexity, hierarchical complexity, and functional complexity in additive manufacturing. Function integration and structure optimization in additive manufacturing. Impact of AM on conventional DTM and manufacturing, in terms of design for manufacturing (DFM), design for assembly (DFA) and Design for Performance (DFP).Story boarding additive manufacturing process.
