When buying shoes it does not matter how good-looking the shoes might be if the size does not fit. This is similar with nanoparticles, which are made by the…
Its highlights included beam sources and manufacturing processes for ultrashort laser pulses as well as ways to systematically optimize machining processes…
Generative manufacturing of a component, in combination with specific directional, three-dimensional fiber structure: The component strength is locally influenced by the addition of fibers. In particular, the local orientation of the fibers allows optimal design even for lightweight construction. The invention can be applied in the areas of rapid prototyping, automotive, aerospace, medical and shipbuilding.
