Procedia Manufacturing · 2021 · 176 citations
Directed Energy Deposition (DED) processes allow additive manufacturing and repair of metallic components with generatively-designed complex geometries, and excellent compositional control. However, its applicability and adoption have been limited when compared to powder bed fusion (PBF) because several issues and anomalies innate to the process are yet to be suitably understood and resolved. This work catalogues and delineates these anomalies in the DED process along with their causes and solut…
Additive Manufacturing Cyber-Physical System: Supply Chain Cybersecurity and Risks
IEEE Access · 2020 · 133 citations
Additive Manufacturing (AM) methods have become increasingly efficient and industrially viable in the past ten years. These methods offer the freedom of complexity to the designers and choices of localized and pull-based production system to the managers. These propositions of AM have been enabling custom manufacturing and are catalysts for rapid growth of additive manufacturing (AM). This paper analyzes the general characteristics of AM supply chain and proposes three AM supply chain models bas…
