The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Drexel University welcomes you to an International Symposium on Multi-Dimensional printing of metals. The symposium will take place on

Friday, April 12, 2019.

The objective of the meeting is to bring together local and International leading experts in the field to identify current critical issues and future directions in the realm of this promising technology.

The event will address the foundations of multi-dimensional printing of metals with a focus on seamless integration of design, simulation, production, testing and qualification of functional printed metallic parts.

Topics

Micro-structure evolution, prediction, and control during printing

Effect of printing on tribological performance of parts

Bio-inspired printing paradigms

In-situ and post production inspection

Performance prediction and optimization techniques (theoretical-numerical-hybrid)

Post process inspection and verification and potential for standardization

Top-bottom and bottom-top approaches and geometrical optimization

Future strategies for part-printing-schemes
