The aim of this course is to introduce students to the fundamental principles of additive manufacturing technologies and product development processes. Students will understand the relationship between design and manufacturing and gain skills in manufacturable design, basic optimization, and introductory engineering analysis.
Introduction to additive manufacturing technologies, basic processes such as FDM and SLA, design for additive manufacturing (DfAM), CAD modeling, basic optimization concepts, introduction to generative design, introductory structural analysis (FEA), and prototyping processes.
