Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is a manufacturing process that involves building three-dimensional objects by adding material layer by layer. It is the opposite of subtractive manufacturing, where the material is removed from a solid block to create a desired shape. 3D printing is a general term that Read more…
Computer graphics plays an important role in biomedical engineering by providing a visual representation of problems and solutions. It helps in many ways by providing a graphics instrument to share information with other fields such as science and medicine using one of our most developed senses. When designing medical devices, Read more…
