Analysis of irregular three-dimensional packing problems in additive manufacturing: a new taxonomy and dataset (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. With most Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology variants, build processes take place inside an internal enclosed build container, referred to as a ‘build volume’. It has been demonstrat...

Using total specific cost indices to compare the cost performance of additive manufacturing for the medical devices domain (2018)
Journal Article

The label additive manufacturing, also known as three-dimensional printing, serves as an umbrella term for a number of technologies designed to deposit product geometries directly from build materials and digital design information. However, as a rel... Read More about Using total specific cost indices to compare the cost performance of additive manufacturing for the medical devices domain.

To kit or not to kit: analysing the value of model-based kitting for additive manufacturing (2018)
Journal Article

The use of additive manufacturing (AM) for the production of functional parts is increasing. Thus, AM based practices that can reduce supply chain costs gain in importance. We take a forward-looking approach and study how AM can be used more effectiv... Read More about To kit or not to kit: analysing the value of model-based kitting for additive manufacturing.
