Alam Z. Post-processing Techniques for Additive Manufacturing 2023

Textbook in PDF format

This text defines and covers different themes of post-processing techniques based on mechanical, chemical/electrochemical, and thermal energy. It will serve as an ideal reference text for senior undergraduate and graduate students in diverse engineering fields including manufacturing, industrial, aerospace, and mechanical.The primary aim of the book is to give the readers a well-informed layout of the different post-processing techniques that range from employing mechanical energy to chemical, electrochemical, and thermal energy to perform the intended task.
