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...
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 $122,531 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research into fabricating columnar-grained microstructures and single crystals of nickel-based superalloys through directional recrystallization of additively manufactured materials. The goal is to develop a cost-effective method for producing nickel-based superalloy turbine blades, a key component in jet engines that currently cost over $15,000 each. The project will...
