A clear distinction generally exists between processes of design generation and processes of design production. The profusion of digital fabrication tools and technologies make evident such distinctions in the context of design production but at the same time carry potential for material and fabrication-based processes promoting generative design methods. Such strategic application and customiz...

objective: an immediate complete denture is fabricated before the extraction of all teeth. it has several advantages such as preservation of esthetics, muscular tone, normal speech and reduction of post-operative pain. this report describes a method of using patient’s current fixed partial denture (fpd) for single-appointment construction of interim immediate denture.   case: we used patient’s ...

This paper presents a model fabrication scheme that automatically approximates a model whose boundary consists of several freeform surfaces by developable surfaces and then unroll these developable surfaces onto a plane. The model can then be fabricated by assembling the sets of developable surfaces which have been cut from planar sheets and rolled back to their proper Euclidean locations. Both...

Holography plays a significant role in applications such as data storage, light trapping, security, and biosensors. However, conventional fabrication methods remain time-consuming, costly, and complex, limiting the fabrication of holograms and their extensive use. Here, we demonstrate a single-pulse laser ablation technique to write parallel surface gratings and Fresnel zone plates. We utilized...

Rapid manufacturing is emerging as a technology that enables the fabrication of three-dimensional heterogeneous objects. Compared to homogeneous objects, the fabrication of heterogeneous objects is very complicated for the processing of material information especially Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs). To take full advantage of rapid manufacturing, some methods to design and fabricate hetero...

Silicon photonics gathered a great amount of investments during the last decade. Both research centres and major industries directed their resources towards this promising technology. As a result, different technological platforms have been proposed [17] and some of them are now accessible through multi-project wafer services. This interest was fuelled by the idea of exploiting CMOS fabs capabi...
