3 Simple Hacks to Protect your Files from Theft, Piracy, and Plagiarism by Maker’s Muse

3D Printing in US Army

“Additive manufacturing technology has the ability to improve the performance of Army weapon systems on the battlefield. Additionally, 3D printing gives the Army a tactical advantage by providing the ability to manufacture and produce items as close to the point of need as possible. This will not only lighten the logistics burden but also improve the efficiency of the acquisition process. By simplifying the process of repairing or producing spare parts, the Army will make critical gains in readiness,” states the Army.

“TinyLev is not the first 3D printed levitation device we’ve seen – there’s even a 3D printer being made using ultrasonic manipulation properties – but you can easily build this one yourself.”

Research paper 

Carnegie Mellon Researchers Make Strides in 3D Printing Prototypes for Telescoping Structures

“Telescoping structures are valuable for a variety of applications where mechanisms must be compact in size and yet easily deployed. So far, however, there has been no systematic study of the types of shapes that can be modeled by telescoping structures, nor practical tools for telescopic design,” state the researchers in their paper.
