Examples of additive manufacturing technologies include stereolithography, fused deposi tion modeling, 3D printing, selective laser melting, laser engineered net shape processes, ultrasonic consolidation, and selective laser sintering. Selective laser sintering, for example, fabricates parts in a layer-wise manner by selectively fus ing powdered material in regions defined by the part's cross-sectional geometry.

describes the challenges involved in designing parts for additive manufacturing, including the need for advanced design techniques and tools that can tailor not only the shape of additively manufactured objects but also their composition and functionality. He discusses some of the application frontiers of additive manufacturing, including biological, culinary, and mechatronics applications.
