Talk by Dr. Robin Young 

From ‘Applied Materials’ 

Title: Technology and Material Developments in Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM)

Abstract: Additive Layer Manufacturing is acknowledged to be a disruptive technology
in advanced manufacturing.  This presentation provides an overview  on the
last International Conference on Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing
held at Nottingham and  examines the opportunities for ALM and the
obstacles to uptake with a focus on the relationship between processing
and materials aspects which both need to developed to meet market
aspirations.

Talk by Dr. Alysia Garmulewicz 

From Saïd Business School, University of Oxford

Title: 3D Printing and the Circular Economy

Abstract: Alysia will present her PHD research on the implications of additive manufacturing for the circular economy.  Nano-scale fabrication, bio-inspired design, and materials traceability are features of additive manufacturing that may increase the circulation of materials in industrial systems.  The main focus of her research is on the changing scales of production introduced by low-cost 3D printing as a subset of additive manufacturing.  Alysia will explore the materials supply chains for 3D printing, the growing distribution of 3D printing production, and the implications for circular economy aims.
