In today’s highly regulated environment for drug development and manufacturing, new challenges have emerged from internal pressures to reduce costs by eliminating waste in the development process, ...

Operational data such as torque, vibration, and temperature are vital for refining machine design and predicting failure modes. Feedback from real-world machines reduces over-engineering, cuts costs, ...

The past decade has seen unparalleled growth in the field of cell therapy, which uses cells as therapeutic agents to treat and cure disease. Although the first transplants of blood stem cells date ...

New integration and patterning schemes used in 3D memory and logic devices have created manufacturing and yield challenges. Industrial focus has shifted from the scaling of predictable unit processes ...

Pultrusion is one of the technologies used to produce fibre-reinforced plastic composites. This continuous manufacturing method produces fixed cross-sections for both solid and hollow components.

Process design kits consist of a set of files that typically contain descriptions of the basic building blocks of the process. They are expressed, algorithmically, as Pcells. These descriptions are ...

The hot melt extrusion (HME) process can be employed in the production of a wide range of pharmaceutical dosage forms, including capsules, tablets, lozenges and implants. HME is suitable for both ...

The screw conveyor has an extensive history. Archimedes (ca. 212 BC) invented the first screw conveyor, and his design is still used today for irrigation and grain transfer. Screw conveyors became ...

For metallic alloys in aerospace, machine learning can make the development of additive manufacturing (AM) processes both faster and cheaper. In collaboration with the University of Sheffield Advanced ...
