Modern automobiles are operated by small computers that communicate critical information via a broadcast-based network architecture called controller area network (CAN).
Electrical utility substations are wired with intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), such as protective relays, power meters, and communication switches.
Complex protective casings and housings are necessary for many applications, including combustion chambers of gas turbines used in aerospace engines. Manufacturing these components from forging and/or casting as a whole is challenging, costly, and time-consuming.
Real-time tracking and monitoring of radioactive/nuclear materials during transportation is a critical need to ensure safety and security. Current technologies rely on simple tagging, using sensors attached to transport containers, but they have limitations.
Compliance in a part, work holding, or base plate is beneficial for certain processes, but detrimental for machining and material removal.
In additive manufacturing large stresses are induced in the build plate and part interface. A result of theses stresses are deformations in the build plate and final component.
