Course description
Ceramic additive manufacturing has advanced rapidly in the past two decades and continues to evolve as an industry. Currently available manufacturing systems present a viable alternative to some and a valuable complement to many more conventional manufacturing methods. As with any new manufacturing tool, quantifying and managing uncertainty and risk are crucial, necessitating a solid understanding of the scientific fundamentals as well as the technological state of the art. The course provides its audience a balanced program that contains a mixture of fundamental, economic, application-specific, and technology-based topics from a variety of academic, industrial, and government laboratory experts. The course includes the following topics spread across two days:
- Day 1: General Overview, AM Methods, and Standards/Qualification
- Day 2: Recent Advances and Horizon Technologies
