Modern Manufacturing Methods

Catalog description

Investigates the capabilities and equipment of both conventional manufacturing processes and modern manufacturing processes. Emphasizes the fundamental, development and application of casting, forming and sintering processes for conventional manufacturing processes. Emphasizes the emerging topics related to additive manufacturing, field-assisted manufacturing and nanomanufacturing for modern manufacturing processes. Also introduces engineering materials, structure of materials, property of materials and material characterizations in the manufacturing processes. Complements theoretical concepts presented in lectures with the presentation of relevant research topics and/or industrial applications. Develops an understanding of manufacturing process evolution and the capabilities of modern manufacturing processes and equipment.
