3D printing and additive manufacturing rinciples and applications (with companion media pack) fourth edition of Rapid prototyping / [electronic resource] : Chee Kai Chua, Kah Fai Leong. - 4th ed. of Rapid prototyping. - Singapore : World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd., ©2015. - 1 online resource (548 p.) : ill.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
"3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing (AM) has revolutionised how prototypes are made and small batch manufacturing carried out. With additive manufacturing, the strategies used to produce a part change a number of important considerations and limitations previously faced by tool designers and engineers. This textbook is the fourth edition of Rapid Prototyping: Principles and Applications. It covers the key AM processes, the available models and specifications, and their principles, materials, advantages and disadvantages. Examples of application areas in design, planning, manufacturing, biomedical engineering, entertainment, weaponry, art and architecture are also given. The book includes several related problems for the reader to test his or her understanding of the topics. This edition comes with a companion media pack that presents animated illustrations of the working principles of today's key AM processes."--
