Design for Additive Manufacturing

Martin Leary is an Associate Professor at the School of Engineering, RMIT University, Australia. His research interests include engineering design, and system approaches and optimization. He is also the Medical Manufacturing Group Leader at RMIT, a member of the RMIT Centre for Additive Manufacturing (CAM), and co-editor of the International Conference on Sustainable Automotive Technologies.

"This book provides the current state-of-the-art of design for additive manufacturing (DFAM) for research and industrial applications. With the in-depth technical descriptions, references, and summary at the end of each chapter along with many practical best practices presented, this book could be used by the AM design engineer for part optimization, or by traditional part designers or students who want to learn more about AM practices." --IEEE
