Journal Article
Zhao, P., He, Y., Trindade, G. F., Baumers, M., Irvine, D., Hague, R., …Wildman Conceptualisation, R. (2021). Modelling the influence of UV curing strategies for optimisation of inkjet based 3D printing. Materials and Design, 208, Article 109889. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2021.109889

A predictive model is developed to assist in the design and manufacture of structures by inkjet based 3D printing (IJ3DP)/additive manufacturing. IJ3DP often exploits photopolymerisation to rapidly convert a photoreactive liquid ink into a solid prod...
