5th National Conference on Rapid Design, Prototyping and Manufacture
David M Jacobson, Allan E W Rennie, Dr Chris E Bocking
Résumé
Rapid prototyping and allied fields are still relatively young technologies and, as such, their scope and range are expanding at a dramatic rate. New and improved techniques and applications are developing and this is reflected in the varied topics covered in Rapid Design, Prototyping, and Manufacture.
Efforts to extend the scope of application of three-dimensional printing processes is an important milestone in rapid manufacture. This is being vigorously addressed and is well represented in this volume. It now seems to be only a matter of time before three-dimensional printing units will join other peripherals in office and domestic computer systems to produce toys, small domestic and office items on demand.
Anyone interested in RP and associated technologies will find this volume vital to their needs to keep up-to-date with developments. In addition to providing a forum for presenting reports on recent advances, Rapid Design, Prototyping, and Manufacture provides an essential reference for information exchange and discssuion, with active encouragement given to the participation of young researchers and new users of these technologies.
L'auteur - David M Jacobson
Dr David M Jacobson obtained a doctorate in Materials Science from the University of Sussex. He has established a career in industrial rsearch, with specialist expertise in metal joining and electronics packaging. After managing the Materials Fabrication Division of GEC-Marconi in North London from 1985 to 1997, he now works as a freelance consultant. Since January 2000, he has had a part-time appointment as a Research Fellow at the Centre for Rapid Design and Manufacture, helping to set up collaborative research projects on rapid manufacturing.
L'auteur - Allan E W Rennie
Dr Allan E W Rennie obtained a Bachelors in Computer Aided Engineering from Glasgow Caledonian University in 1995, which spurred his interest in rapid prototyping. This led to a move to the Centre for Rapid Design and Manufacture where he conducted research in various areas of rapid prototyping technoogies, finally leading to the award of a PhD from Brunel University. After a spell as an R&D Engineer with CRDM, a move back Northwards saw Allan settle at Lancaster University to manage the Lancaster Product Development Unit, set up using ERDF grants to provide support to the SME community of the North West Region. Allan is co-recipient of the Westinghouse Prize of the Institute of Metal Finishing in 2003.
Dr Chris E Bocking obtained a Graduateship of the Institute of Metal Finishing from the South Bank Polytechnic in 1981 and a PhD on applied electrochemistry from Loughborough University in 1994. He has worked in surface engineering for 30 years and is currently employed on a part-time basis as Research Co-ordinator at the Centre for Rapid Design and Manufacture, working on the development and use of new materials for rapid tooling and the application of electroforming to toolmaking and advanced manufacturing processes.
