Purdue University researchers have developed a patent-pending method to add particles to filament and disperse them evenly through a traditional fused deposition modeling, or FDM, 3D printer, which ...

Cadence is trying to automate more aspects of the chip design process with Integrity 3D-IC, a suite of software tools it says can help engineers develop faster, less power-hungry chips using 3D ...

The company says these "smart" models support lean manufacturing and reduce the number of drawings needed for design reviews. V19 uses an intuitive approach to guide users through adding dimensions ...

Almost exactly a year ago, Adobe launched Project Felix, its 3D compositing tool for designers who want to combine their 2D images with 3D assets. Today, this tool is coming out of its preview period ...

It’s a 3D world out there, but designers have worked in 2D drawings for decades. The emergence of 3D design has been a great step forward, but how do you continue to utilize, and even enhance, the ...

As 3D printing continues to revolutionize manufacturing, researchers have decided that three dimensions are not enough, and so the concept of 4D printing has begun to emerge. These four-dimensional ...
