3D printing

Additive manufacturing of metal alloys yields great potential for the aerospace industry (and others) as it allows the generation of geometrically complex structures with high specific strength, low density and high corrosion resistance. For example, General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, Boeing incorporated more than 300 printed parts in their 777X airplane … For such critical applications, the structural quality of printed parts is of utmost importance. Small deviations in print conditions, e.g.

SIAMM22

Workshop on  Structural Integrity of  Additively Manufactured Materials

Hotel Continental Brno

Brno, Czech Republic, 4th -5th February 2022 & online

The Mueller Lab invites applications for two fully-funded Postdoctoral Fellow positions at the intersection of Additive Manufacturing, Mechanical Metamaterials, and Computational Design. Of specific interest are candidates with a background in direct-ink writing (DIW), dielectric-elastomer actuators (DEA), and computational design (including optimization and machine learning). Applicants must hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Computer Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related discipline.

If you're a user of Simpleware software, or want to know more about it, I recommend the new release webcast this week: Simpleware S-2021.06 Release: Highlights of New and Improved Features:

Here's what it'll cover:

Dear colleagues:

We would like to invite you to submit an abstract to the topic on 3D Printed Soft Materials at the 2021 ASME IMECE, which is to be held as a virtual conference online from November 1 to November 5, 2021. This year, we are more than happy to invite Dr. Cheng Sun from Northwestern University to give an invited talk.

Please refer to the attached file for the scope of our topic. To submit an abstract, please

A postdoctoral fellow research position is availabe immediately in the Advanced Digital & Additive Manufacturing (ADAM) center at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. Applicants should demonstrate research capabilities in modeling, experimentation, and testing in the area of additive manufacturing (3D printing). Candidates with research experience related to sandwich panels will be considered with higher priority.

The project “Computational mechanics and optimisation for energy absorption of materials” is calling for applications for PhD scholarship commencing in 2021. This project is funded by the Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Candidates with knowledge and research experience in computational mechanics, design optimisation and machine learning are encouraged to apply.

Project description:

The use of 3D printed metal structures is taking a very fast ramp-up in industry. General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, EADS has printed a nacelle hinge bracket for the Airbus A320, Boeing is printing plastic inlet ducts for high-altitude aircrafts, hip implants and other prosthetics are exploiting the design freedom of additive manufacturing (AM),...

Dear Colleagues,

We are organizing a focus session on "02.01.15 Physics of Bio-Inspired Materials (DSOFT, DBIO, DPOLY) [same as 04.01.42, 01.01.54]" for the 2021 American Physical Society Meeting (March 15-19), which will be an online meeting. This session covers most of the classical and emerging research topics of bio-inspired materials.
