To achieve this goal, students have been developing the design and construction of demonstration didactic prototypes...

... Abstract Given the fact that current technology has created islands of automation, lack of integration is a major obstacle in the widespread use of CAD/CAM in routine engineering work. This paper presents a case study of design for manufacturing. Design features in a CAD/CAM package have been...

... combination of roller diameter, length and quantity to maximize BDLR within certain predetermined constraints. Results show that significant increases in load rating can be achieved when compared with existing designs in product offerings. This program thus enables the designer to efficiently create enhanced...

... Abstract The capability of metal additive manufacturing (AM) to produce parts with complex geometries manifests its potential to revolutionize manufacturing. However, the presence of heterogeneous defects even under optimized part design and processing conditions imposes critical barriers...
