Summary:

Multi-material Additive Manufacturing: Processing, Properties, Opportunities, and Challenges outlines various methods for the additive manufacturing of multi-material polymers, metals, ceramics, and metal-ceramics, showing readers how to tailor these materials with specific properties and specialized applications. The first section of the book discusses the role of machine and process parameters, the selection of raw materials, interface control, thermodynamic calculations, and process simulations. The second section covers additive manufacturing techniques for multi-materials, and the book concludes with a section covering the different multi-materials that can be produced and their various applications, such as in electronics, biomedical engineering, and high-end mechanical instruments.- Provides methods for additive manufacturing in multi-material polymers, metals, ceramics, composites, and metal-ceramics- Discusses machine and process parameters, raw materials, thermodynamics of multi-materials, and applications of multi-materials- Weighs the pros and cons of various multi-materials and their manufacturing processes
