Biomedical Textiles in Implantable Medical Devices
Features 8/30/2010 Post a comment Because material selection intersects the physical, chemical and biological sciences, a multi-disciplinary team of engineers from each of these areas should be involved when evaluating device design and manufacturing options.
Rapid Prototyping Facilitates Rapid Casting
Features 8/26/2010 1 comment Using graphite molds to produce parts from ZA-12 can provide designers with a low-cost casting option for highly changeable, medium-volume part production runs.
Understanding Aluminum Alloys
Features 8/25/2010 Post a comment From its low energy use to its suitability for anodizing, aluminum can be a good choice for designers seeking high thermal and electrical conductivity. Knowing which aluminum alloy series to use is critical for complex extrusions.
Materials Decisions Critical to New Watch Design
Features 8/23/2010 Post a comment Devon Works has developed a bold new look for its sports watch. The company's first step toward making this watch a reality was to move beyond the CAD image and develop a highly accurate prototype.
Custom Elastomer Conforms to Runner's Gait
Features 8/9/2010 Post a comment A single polymer elastomer from PolyOne conforms to a runner's weight and gait, and also conforms to tough environmental goals at Brooks Running Shoes.
We looked at a number of sources to determine this year's greenest cars, from KBB to automotive trade magazines to environmental organizations. These 14 cars emerged as being great at either stretching fuel or reducing carbon footprint.
Researchers at MIT and Sandia National Labs have observed a reaction in lithium-air batteries that could help improve the design of these cells for electric vehicles and other applications.
Healthcare might seem to be an unlikely target application for the Internet of Things technology, but recent developments show small ways that big-data is going to make an impact on patient care moving into the future.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
