Draft: Algorithms for Rapid Development of Inherently-manufacturable Laminate Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present several algorithms suited for the generation and analysis of structures used in manufacturing laminate electromechanical devices. These devices may be fabricated by a family of related manufacturing processes such as printed-circuit MEMS (PC-MEMS) smart composite microstructures (SCM), or lamina emergent mechanisms (LEM), which, by utilizing multimaterial laminate composites, enables kinematic motion, component embedding, and monolithic fabrication of high-precision millimeter-scale features. The presented algorithms enable rapid generation of manufacturing features such as support structures and cut files, while facilitating integration with the user’s design intent and available material removal processes. An exemplar device is presented, which, though simple in concept, could not be manufactured without the aid of an expert designer to produce the same features generated by these algorithms.

An Analytic Framework for Developing Inherently-Manufacturable Pop-up Laminate Devices
Spurred by advances in manufacturing technologies developed around layered manufacturing technologies such as PC-MEMS, SCM, and printable robotics, we propose a new analytic framework for capturing the geometry of folded composite laminate devices and the mechanical processes used to manufacture them. These processes can be represented by combining a small set of geometric operations which are ...
متن کاملA Machine-Learning Framework for Design for Manufacturability
Computer-aided Design for Manufacturing (DFM) systems play an important role in reducing the time taken for product development by providing manufacturability feedback to the designer while a particular component is being designed. Traditionally, DFM rules are hand-crafted and used to accelerate the engineering product design process by integrating manufacturability analysis during design. Such...

Abstract— In order to provide complete security in a computer system and to prevent intrusion, intrusion detection systems (IDS) are required to detect if an attacker crosses the firewall, antivirus, and other security devices. Data and options to deal with it. In this paper, we are trying to provide a model for combining types of attacks on public data using combined methods of genetic algorit...
متن کاملRapid Fabrication of Electrophoretic Microfluidic Devices from Polyester, Adhesives and Gold Leaf
In the last decade, the microfluidic community has witnessed an evolution in fabrication methodologies that deviate from using conventional glass and polymer-based materials. A leading example within this group is the print, cut and laminate (PCL) approach, which entails the laser cutting of microfluidic architecture into ink toner-laden polyester sheets, followed by the lamination of these lay...
متن کاملVolume changes occurring in postoperative below-knee residual limbs.
Comparative maturation rates of 36 below-knee postoperative, healed amputation residual limbs were observed. Measured were the limb volumes and circumferences. Three methods of residual limb stabilization were employed: 1) elastic wrap; 2) plaster cast and pylon; and, 3) plastic laminate socket and pylon. The limbs receiving the plastic laminate showed the most rapid stabilization, while the el...
