    military, automotive, technology, engineering, fashion, architecture and aerospace are just some of the industries which can benefit from the new process.” (44) In his article, Seymour lists various instances of 3D printing being used such making prototyping Nike running shoes cheaper, jet engines more efficient, organ replacement more likely to occur, cheaper medicine, and improved space travel. Because of all the beneficial tasks it can perform, it would appear that 3D printing could have a central

    The thousands upon thousands of amorphous thermoplastics in existence provide many options as to what properties a printed object can have. Both ABS and PLA are commonly used plastic 3-D filament, but they are used for very different reasons. ABS has a higher melting temperature and printing temperature than PLA probably due to the extra entanglement cause by the branching chains in ABS. Without a properly heated printing bed, this could cause warping and shrinkage of the ABS object when lower layers

    wide variation of mechanical properties of additive manufactured parts. The mechanical behavior of produced components is known to be profoundly affected by a microstructure, which, in turn, depends on the material and process parameters. In this paper, a two-dimensional numerical model is developed to simulate the grain structure evolution during laser additive manufacturing. The cellular automata method is applied to describe the grain growth. The Goldak’s heat source model is used to define the

    INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: ARMY PRODUCTION INTRODUCTION The Economist (2012) titled its article about 3D printing as ‘The Third Industrial Revolution’, implying that 3D technology has a potential to do so. Will it really be happen? The answer remains to be seen, but considering the capabilities of 3D technology, it seems absolute. When we look back to history, wheel, steam engine, and light bulb were all breakthroughs that shaped the way societies lived. In the 21th century, 3D printing is the biggest

    During the third year, the first four months, between October 2017 and January 2018, will be dedicated to the improvement of the game engine plug-in based on the triangulation, explained in section \ref{sec:fw-improving-2.5D}. We plan to publish a paper about this work. The four next months, between February and May, will be committed to develop the key technologies required for the animation software, while in the following three months the focus will be on its user interface. This last task is particularly

    Current medicine up has typically depended on the human body as its main model in the creation of organs for transplants and teaching methods. Up until recently X-Rays and cadavers have served as primary reference points for the structure of bones and were used as universal models for almost every human. However, now with the introduction of the 3D printer in the medical field, the possibilities and advancements are growing and the options are becoming endless. Using scientific research on current

    New Medical Research shows that 3-D printing can be used to reproduce human cells by bio-printing blood vessels and human tissue. Medical Research has shown that 3-D printing of the tissue can be a new invasive treatment for individuals that need rapid acting, life-saving treatment and the most cost effective option. There are a variety of different types of 3-D printers. However, with each 3-D printer they each produce their own unique and distinct objects. The usage of each 3-D printer differs
