Our recent work on Cooperative Additive Manufacturing, A.K.A. Cooperative 3D Printing (C3DP) was featured by Journal of Mechanical Design. Check out the featured article here: What can ants teach us about making better factories? The preprint of this article can be downloaded here: Decentralized and Centralized Planning for Multi-Robot Additive Manufacturing.

Meanwhile, our paper “A Generative Approach for Scheduling Multi-Robot Cooperative Three-Dimensional Printing” is among the top 20 most accessed (downloaded and viewed) articles in the ASME Journal of Computing and Information Science in Engineering in 2022.

It was a great pleasure to host our guest speaker, Jessa Parette, the Senior Director of Research, Strategy & Design Systems at Capital One, to share her insights into design thinking methodologies in product development and customer needs analysis. Students had a great time discussing the questions they were interested in about their design practices, and I was very happy to see they were eager to link the knowledge learned from the classroom to the real world.
