FUNCTIONALLY GRADED ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING: A TEACHING CASE STUDY of INEX-ADAM

Abstract

The multidisciplinary nature and lack of comprehensive 'materials-product-manufacturing' knowledge of Functionally Graded Additive Manufacturing (FGAM) require training to support the future Additive Manufacturing experts. INEX-ADAM, an EU funded project is building a transnational platform to promote FGAM. Brunel University London conducted two-day workshop on FGAM at the University of Zagreb in Croatia with academics and industry professionals. The workshop will strengthen the research capabilities to harness the potential of the FGAM and mitigate the constraints to industrial applications.
