sectors including transportation, health care, military and education. Uses include building concept models, functional prototypes, factory tooling (such as molds and robot-arm ends), and even finished goods (such as aircraft internal components). The aerospace and medical industries in particular have developed advanced applications for 3D printing. 3D printing is sometimes referred to as “rapid prototyping,” but this term does not encompass all current uses for the technology. Materials used in 3D printing

Bombardier had an acquisition based growth strategy, first of all it went on to become a key player in the Transportation industry. Then it slowly diversified into the Aerospace industry too. It went on to become the third largest designer and manufacturer of commercial aircraft in the world, followed by Boing and Airbus. Its Aerospace industry was further organized into four product and service lines which included services such as aircraft charter, fractional ownership of business jest, aircraft maintenance

Aerodynamics of Supersonic Aircraft Name: Institution: Aerodynamics of Supersonic Aircraft The world over the past three decades has experienced manned aircraft travelling at supersonic speeds. Supersonic aircraft exhibit a much higher propulsion system as opposed to the previous aircraft, therefore, they are more efficient (Winchester, 2008). In this respect, the designer cannot allow this efficiency to drop below the theoretical optimum in spite of the increased complexity and weight. In addition

The Boeing Company is an American multinational aerospace and defense corporation that was founded in 1916 and is the largest exporter by value in the United States (Smith B. (2001)). This layoffs will created a shortage of aerospace jobs and has created a tough hiring environment for unemployed workers. Brockner, J. (1992) stated that “if the layoffs are mismanaged, thereby hampering survivors'

I have always strived to observe and better interpret the things around me and my curiosity has nurtured and manifested itself into the desire to pursue engineering. I was first introduced to Computer Aided Engineering watching a series of aircraft crash investigation documentaries in which official bodies would through a long unanimous process determine the causes of the crash. Due to the sheer amount of fact-gathering nowadays from reconstruction of wreckage to aircraft performance, and structures

Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) is the integration of mechanical elements, sensors, actuators and electronics on a common silicon substrate using microfabrication techniques. MEMS are a hot area of research because they integrate sensing, analyzing and responding on the same silicon substrate hence promising realization of complete systems-on-a-chip. As MEMS are manufactured using batch fabrication techniques similar to IC technology, MEMS are expected

the fact that ‘‘an accelerator’’ such as a tertiary amine is often used (this accelerator works like an initiator for anionic chain polymerization and the reaction is a mixture of polyaddition and chain polymerization). Most of the matrices for aerospace composites are based on a combination of TGMDA and DDS and/or Dicy. The chemical structure of the curing agent DDS (diamino diphenylsulfone) is as shown in the
