A framework for mapping design for additive manufacturing knowledge for industrial and product design
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a conceptual framework for design for additive manufacturing (DfAM), which is based on a generic design process model and consists of five parts: Conceptual design, Embodiment design, Detail design and Process planning and process selection.

An open source toolkit for 3D printed fluidics
TL;DR: An easy to follow design workflow for minimising the complexity of this design optimization process following the development of a 3D printable ‘toolkit’ of common fittings and connectors required for constructing basic flow chemistry configurations.

- 13 Sep 2017
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore how shape complexity impacts build time in material extrusion (ME) and material jetting (MJ) processes and present preliminary indications on how to design efficient components for ME and MJ.

A bibliometric analysis of research in design for additive manufacturing
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used a bibliometric approach to analyse publications from January 2010 to December 2020 to explore the subject areas, publication outlets, most active authors, geographical distribution of scholarly outputs, collaboration and co-citations at both institutional and geographical levels and outcomes from keywords analysis.
