This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $650,000 in funding to Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2027. The project aims to fully understand the mechanisms controlling shape distortion in additive manufacturing (AM) processes, particularly during the sintering of nano/microparticles. The research involves integrated experimental and theoretical work to identify critical AM process parameters that...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports fundamental research on "digital alloying" - a manufacturing process that uses metal precursor inks and additive manufacturing to fabricate metal alloy parts with controlled composition and microstructure. The $200,000 award to New Mexico State University (NMSU) aims to develop an understanding of how the digital printing of multi-metal precursor inks affects the...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $567,121 Project Grant to Michigan State University under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The grant funds fundamental research to develop a new metal additive manufacturing process using light projection of mixtures of photopolymer and metal powder. Rather than point-by-point printing, the proposed process would use digital light projection to cure an entire layer of photopolymer mixed with metal powder. This could enable high-speed...
This $250,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports a collaborative research project led by the University of Pittsburgh. The objective is to develop an approach for optimally determining laser scan sequences in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing processes. The research aims to uncover the relationships between optimal scan sequences, temperature distribution, distortion, and residual stress in LPBF. This...
This $404,595 National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program grant, awarded to the University of Delaware on March 1, 2024, supports research to enhance multi-material additive manufacturing (3D printing) through the use of advective assembly techniques. The project aims to develop modular 3D printing nozzles capable of rapidly structuring and depositing multi-material composites at higher resolution and volumetric throughput than conventional methods. This could enable new applications...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $335,000 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York to conduct collaborative research on developing tough and 3D-printable ceramic nanocomposites. The research aims to overcome the intrinsic fragility of ceramic materials by introducing small quantities of boron nitride nanotubes into polymer-derived ceramics. This work will enable the development of...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $526,334 Project Grant to the University of Pittsburgh through the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to support research titled "CAREER: UNRAVELING FUNDAMENTAL MECHANISMS GOVERNING GRAIN REFINEMENT IN COMPLEX CONCENTRATED ALLOYS MADE BY ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING TOWARDS STRONG AND DUCTILE STRUCTURES." The five-year award, effective April 15, 2021 through March 31, 2026, will fund research investigating fundamental mechanisms governing...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $197,643 Project Grant to San Diego State University Research Foundation under the Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.041). The grant will fund research from January 2022 through December 2023 to develop techniques for making high-temperature alloyed components by combining additive manufacturing and spark plasma sintering. Specifically, the grant aims to enable greater complexity in component shapes while also predicting microstructures. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering (CFDA 47.041) totaling $344,918 will establish a collaborative research program at Florida International University (FIU) to develop advanced data-driven approaches for additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing of materials with locally tunable electrical and mechanical properties. The research aims to create new polymer resin formulations for digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing that can...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $100,000 Project Grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships federal grant program (CFDA 47.084) to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York. The award period is from June 15, 2022 to May 31, 2023 to support development of an Intelligent Re-Design Recommender System for Additive and Hybrid Manufacturing in Buffalo, New York. Specifically, the grant funds development of a novel, automated assessment and re-design...
