9th Applied Sciences Webinar

Additive Manufacturing and Topology Optimization of Microstructures

Topology optimization is the modern approach for flexible optimal design of structures and microstructures. Additive manufacturing, known also as rapid prototyping or 3D printing makes feasible the creation of structures of any shape and topology, including microstructures. Exchange of information between the two disciplines, the state of the art development and expected steps for the near future is the topic of the present webinar.

Date: 7 February 2023

Time: 10:00 am CET | 4:00 am EST | 5:00 pm CST Asia | 11:00 am EET

Webinar ID: 840 2871 8035
