Development of a Multi-material Extruder System to 3D Print Hard Thermoplastics, Soft Elastomers and Liquid Metals
DownloadSpring 2019
Functional sensors often consist of rigid parts, soft rubber-like parts, and mechanically tunable electronic components. As part of a larger project to 3D print tunable antennas, it was tasked to develop a printer that could directly produce 3D stretchable electronics with soft and hard...

Spring 2022
This thesis focuses on the manufacturing of high carbide content wear-resistant parts by extrusion- based Additive Manufacturing (AM) based on the principles of Powder Metallurgy (PM). A new manufacturing technique, termed Fused Filament Fabrication of Cermets (FFFC) is presented. First, particle...

Bhardwaj, N., Henein, H., Wolfe, T.
Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is a method used to fabricate initial prototypes out of polymeric materials with printed parts often being used as load carrying elements. The mechanical properties of various polymer materials produced under certain printing conditions exhibit superior strength...
