Colloidal Processing of Ceramics
TL;DR: In this article, a review of colloidal processing of ceramics is presented with an emphasis on interparticle forces, suspension rheology, consolidation techniques, and drying behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in Additive Manufacturing and Rapid Prototyping
TL;DR: Rapid prototyping generally refers to techniques that produce shaped parts by gradual creation or addition of solid material, therein differing fundamentally from forming and material removal manufacturing techniques as mentioned in this paper. But it is not suitable for all applications.
