GREETING　　

It is a great pleasure to welcome you, on behalf of the organizing committee, to the 2nd Global Forum on Smart Additive Manufacturing, Design & Evaluation (Smart MADE), to be held at Osaka University Nakanoshima Center in Osaka, Japan, from 30th August to 2nd September 2020, organized by Joining and Welding Research Institute (JWRI), Osaka University.

Additive manufacturing and 3D printing technologies are globally recognized as novel fabrication processes for advanced materials and components with multifunctional structures. These technologies offer tremendous potential for design innovations and customization, complex part fabrication, rapid prototyping, and distributed digital manufacturing.

In this approach, three-dimensional models are designed and created according to theoretical concepts using computer software, and two-dimensional cross sections are created by slicing operations automatically. Computer aided design, manufacture and evaluation are especially called smart additive processing.

In lithography based approaches, high resolution laser or electron beams are scanned on a spread metal or ceramic powder bed with or without resin binders to form solid planes of two-dimensional cross sections. In deposition processes, paste materials with ceramic/metal particles dispersed in binder system are fused from nozzles moving freely in three dimensions to create composite structures. Outstanding coating and pattering processes are used to modify surface functions of the fabricated 3D components.

Various functional metal or ceramic components of dielectric or magnetic lattices to control electromagnetic fields, electrodes or catalysts with large surface area, and bio-materials components for medical applications could also be developed. Large scale structural components for aerospace and other high temperature applications can be fabricated with internal cooling path networks formed without casting molds.

Thanks to additive manufacturing nowadays it is possible to design for function and not for manufacturing, nonetheless each technique needs special design adjustments to boost products efficiency.

This workshop focuses on superiority of design, efficient processing, and perspicuous evaluations in the additive manufacturing and 3D printing processes. In addition, various topics related to starting materials, characterization tools, nondestructive evaluations and in-situ monitoring of processes, qualification and certification, cost, and applications will also be discussed.
