WISE is proud to announce the first Summer School on Additive Manufacturing. The school is organized by the WISE Additive Research and Technology Platform, involving all three nodes – Uppsala University, Chalmers University of Technology, and Linköping University.
Additive manufacturing (AM) is a manufacturing technology where a three-dimensional object is built based on 3D model data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing and formative manufacturing methodologies. The aim of the school is to establish a basic understanding regarding AM, both as a method for novel material development and as an industrial technology for prototyping and manufacturing of advanced components across diverse sectors. The course covers an overview of seven additive manufacturing technology groups as well as a general overview of the AM manufacturing chain.
The summer school will be conducted across three sessions, hosted by each of the participating members of the WISE Additive Research and technology (RTP):
Anticipating an exciting exchange of knowledge and ideas, the event aims to accommodate a total of 100 participants, including 50 members of the WISE Graduate School (GS), with an additional 50 slots open to PhD students, young researchers, and industrial representatives outside WISE. While participants from the latter group will be charged a nominal fee, the participation of WISE GS members is free of charge.
-This Summer School on Additive Manufacturing promises to be a dynamic forum for learning, collaboration, and networking, says Professor Eduard Hryha, Chalmers University of Technology, Competence Centre for Metal Additive Manufacturing -Metal (CAM2) and one of the organizers of the Summer School.
The responsible organizers of the Summer School on Additive Manufacturing are:
WISE participants will receive an invitation to register via email. Participants outside WISE are kindly asked to contact the organizers of the Summer School to register.

-While XPS is straightforward to use for metals, it poses profound challenges for insulators, which can lead to inaccurate spectra interpretation. The exponential growth in XPS publications has also increased the risk of dissemination of potentially erroneous results. This is a serious concern because scientific progress depends on reliable and reproducible data, say Profs. Greczynski and Hultman from Linköping University.
