Thermal response analysis and parameter prediction of additively manufactured polymers

Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM), is an additive manufacturing technology where polymers are extruded using appropriate processing parameters to achieve suitable bonding while ensuring that overheating does not occur. Among processing parameters, polymer inlet temperature, nozzle size, extrusion spe...
