With additive manufacturing, used to build this heat exchanger, one key is to do prototyping for the part and then see whether additive or subtractive manufacturing is the better choice of manufacture ...

The need for Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) began shortly after the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, but it took a hundred years for it to ultimately come into focus in the 1960s, and it ...

Electronics design engineers spend substantial effort on schematics, simulation, and layout. Yet, a component’s long-term success also depends on how well its physical form aligns with downstream ...

The Design & Manufacturing (DM) emphasis in the Department of Mechanical Engineering allows students to develop abilities and skills in mechanical design and aspects of manufacturing in achieving ...

Standard electronic design automation (EDA) tools can be used to produce a semiconductor layout, which can be used to manufacture a device with targeted performance specifications. Unfortunately, ...

Expanding into wide-format offerings is exciting on many fronts. It’s also challenging and complex as, among other things, it requires creating a smart manufacturing layout to produce the printed ...

Research in design and manufacturing includes machine design, traditional metal manufacturing processes (e.g., metal cutting and metal forming), additive manufacturing techniques (e.g., cold spray and ...
