Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Experimental Comparison for Compression of PLA Specimens Printed in In-Plane and Out-of-Plane DirectionsSalvatore Brischetto, Roberto TorreThe present work proposes an experimental comparison between the in-plane and out-of-plane compressive behaviors of 3D printed PolyLactic Acid (PLA) specimens. These specimens are produced via the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technique by using two different printing directions: the first printing direction in the xz plane allows experimental compression tests in the out-of-plane direction; the second printing direction in the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 25 Sep 2020 · 7,648 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign and Manufacturing of a Custom Skull ImplantJuan Felipe Isaza Saldarriaga, Santiago Correa Vélez, M.D. Adolfo Cumplido Posada et al.Problem statement: Cranioplasty is defined as a neurosurgical procedure to cover an injured bone in the skull. This procedure is carried out in order to protect and restore intracranial structures and to restore the appearance and psychological stability of the patient. Advances in medical imaging, such as MRI and CT, have allowed the 3D reconstruction of anatomical structures for several … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2011 · 9,565 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBio-Inspired Materials: Exhibited Characteristics and Integration Degree in Bio-Printing OperationsAntreas KantarosIn the last decade, additive manufacturing techniques, commonly known under the term "3d printing" have seen constantly increasing use in various scientific fields. The nature of these fabrication techniques that operate under a layer-by-layer material deposition principle features several de facto advantages, compared to traditional manufacturing techniques. These advantages range from the precise attribution of pre-designed complex shapes to the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2022 · 7,180 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHoneycomb Sandwich Specimens Made of PLA and Produced Via 3D FDM Printing Process: An Experimental StudySalvatore Brischetto, Roberto TorreIn recent years, the 3D Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) technology, usually employed for the production of nonstructural objects, has been also used by the present authors for the production of small structural elements where the applied loads are moderate. A typical application could be the production of small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) where stresses are not excessive. In these cases, … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 25 May 2020 · 11,903 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Rapid Thermoform Tooling Via Additive Manufacturing (3d Printing)Gene Haeberle, Salil DesaiAdditive Manufacturing (AM) has matured from a prototyping tool to a soft production tooling in recent years. This research elaborates the role of AM technology (3D printing) in the design, prototyping and development of a rapid thermoform tooling. The Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printer was implemented to fabricate thermoform tooling in Polypropylene Styrofoam (PPSF). We contrast the additively manufactured … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 8 · 9 Oct 2019 · 9,410 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract3D Printing of Porous Scaffolds for Medical ApplicationsAblah Aljohani, Salil DesaiCustom engineered scaffolds that mimic the physiology of native tissue is an emerging need for successful regenerative medicine. One of the key challenges in current manufacturing methods is the lack of controlled porosity throughout the scaffold structure. In this research, our group explores the fabrication of tissue engineering scaffolds using 3D printing technology. The fused deposition modeling method was utilized … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 19 Jun 2018 · 8,508 accessesView PDF Cite
