| 4D Imaging to 4D Printing: Biomedical Applications Subjects: Engineering & Technology; Biomedical Engineering; Industrial Engineering & Manufacturing; Materials Science; Manufacturing Engineering; Materials Processing; Manufacturing Technology; This book is focused on applications of 4D imaging and 4D printing for development of low cost, indigenous lab scale solutions for various bio-medical applications. It initiates from selection of benchmark open source 4D imaging solutions including effect of different stimulus (such as light, electric field, magnetic field, mechanical load, thermal, hydro and so forth) to better understand 4D capabilities of printed components. The material is covered across three sections dedicated to 4D imaging, 4D printing, their specific biomedical applications illustrated via case studies related to orthopaedic and dental requirements of veterinary patients. Features: This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in Additive Manufacturing, Manufacturing Engineering, Production Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Engineering.
