Design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA) overview

Design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA) is a methodical approach which consists to analyse the design of a new or existent product in order to reduce its cost and improve its quality. It includes two methodologies applied together in a...

Additive Manufacturing

The maturity model we propose is based on competency with a strong focus on the technical aspects of AM (e.g. uses, tools, materials, technologies). This section therefore presents definitions of technical elements that will be later found in the project...

Fabrication of superhydrophobic coatings

Fabrication of superhydrophobic coatings  Sol-gel process As the name implies, the sol-gel process involves the evolution of inorganic networks through the formation of a colloidal suspension (sol) and gelation of the sol to form a network in a continuous liquid...

Composite materials reinforced with natural fibers: Generalities

Composites are advanced materials made mostly of a matrix and some reinforcements; however, additives and fillers are sometimes essential elements of their formulation, depending on the targeted application [7–9]. Each component used in the composite formulation aims at achieving a...
