The University of Wisconsin-Madison is leading a new $9.1 million project funded by the Office of Naval Research that aims to enable broader usage of additive manufacturing technologies, especially in fabrication of mission-critical components. UW-Madison Mechanical Engineering Professor Xiaoping Qian is the lead principal investigator on the project, which includes UW-Madison mechanical engineering faculty Curt Bronkhorst, Lianyi Chen, Krishnan Suresh, Shiva Rudraraju, and Jinlong Wu. Researchers from GE Aerospace Research, GE Additive and Intact Solutions are also participating in the project. https://lnkd.in/giSGgjkn
So... how do U.S. Companies get their additive mfg. breakthroughs in front of the right Naval Research people, quickly? Already patent pending and LIGHT YEARS ahead. 😎
Just like Star Trek! Imagine making a spare F35 parts out at sea the Ford class aircraft carrier.
Congratulations Xiaoping Qian!
Congratulations!
Distinguished Innovator, SME, Chemical Engineer
