ORAU
Additive Manufacturing of Multi-material Polymers
ORAU, Aberdeen, Maryland, United States, 21001
Overview
Join to apply for the
Additive Manufacturing of Multi-material Polymers
role at
ORAU .
About the Research ARL has developed a new approach for creating multi-material, multi-functional polymer filaments by combining fused filament fabrication (FFF) additive manufacturing (AM) with thermal fiber drawing. These new materials have a range of applications including functional fibers for smart textiles, and filament feedstocks for high performance FFF components. ARL seeks a co-op student to perform digital design of 3D parts, FFF fabrication of polymer bodies, fiber spinning via thermal drawing, mechanical and thermal materials characterization, and fabrication of application demos. The student will work on a team of multi-disciplinary engineers, and interact with DoD, academia, and industry scientists. The student will be expected to contribute significantly to ongoing research projects, with an opportunity to co-author scientific papers with ARL authors.
