Implicit modeling for additive manufacturing
نویسنده
چکیده
Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology distinguishes itself from more traditional fabrication processes by several significant factors. It allows the creation of objects with complex geometry that would not be possible by subtractive manufacturing or molding. Additionally, 3d printers are of much simpler use than other tools. Finally, since the cost per objects does not change depending on the size of the production run, it allows for per object customization. These reasons, combined with the relatively low cost of some existing 3d printers, explain the interest taken in this technology by the general public. While fabrication of a given object is simplified by AM, it is not the case of the modeling of the geometric model that represents an object.
