Epithelial tissues are in constant interaction with their environment. Maintaining their functionality requires dynamic balance (homeostasis) and that their cell numbers are tightly regulated. This is ...

Engineers can now optimize FDM parts for real applications with reduced trial-and-error testing, allowing manufacturers to ...

All architecture is grounded in the earth. This pliant, resilient raw material is the origin of extruded ceramic tiles—clay transformed from its natural state into an architectural solution without ...

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the go-to method for designing most of today's physical products. Engineers use CAD to turn 2D sketches into 3D models that they can then test and refine before sending ...

Usually, CAD software products are very expensive. However, since most of the applications of such software are by companies, they can afford it. The same isn’t true for students and self-employed ...

It is easy to write off Tinkercad as a kid’s toy. It is easy enough for kids to learn and it uses bright colors looking more like a video game than a CAD tool. We use a variety of CAD tools, but for ...

Abstract: Sketch-based modeling studies reconstructing models from sketches automatically, allowing users visualize design concepts rapidly. Generating CAD models based on user sketches helps reduce ...

Medical device developer and manufacturer Arterex Medical Device Inc. has acquired Xponent Global Inc., a Hudson, Mass.-based medical tubing extrusion supplier, expanding its footprint in North ...
