Knowledge Base Repository

In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
Thermal history is critical to part performance and reliability in material-extrusion additive manufacturing. Using encoders and an infrared camera, we developed a method to generate thermal clouds, where each node has its distinct spatio-thermal data. Filters removed up to 20.68% of the data while preserving relevant thermal features. This study enables in-situ process monitoring that establishes the basis for part certification, particularly for high-performance polymers, and for predicting material strength from thermal clouds.
