The book bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, encouraging the integration of Industry 4.0 technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), across diverse applications.

Features:

- Discusses the fundamentals of Additive Manufacturing (AM), materials selection, and future industrial applications.

- Highlights the integration of AM with advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), as well as the importance of Industry 4.0 elements in smart manufacturing.

- Delves into the role of Reverse Engineering (RE) in healthcare for the development of customised medical devices and implants, as well as for future bioprinting applications.

- Explores the transformative role of AM in space exploration, spacecraft systems, and mission payloads.

- Covers concrete 3D printing for sustainable construction and discusses emerging 4D and 5D printing technologies that leverage smart materials, multi-axis control, and digital intelligence to enable adaptive, high-performance structures.

The book is primarily intended for polytechnic students, undergraduates, graduate students, medical students, and academic researchers in manufacturing engineering, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, production engineering, aerospace engineering, automotive engineering, and biomedical engineering.
