1. Describe what “additive manufacturing” and how it is being applied in the automotive industry. Use at least two sources (can be from web, encyclopedia, handbook, wherever). 2. For each source, briefly explain what the source is (corporate website, news article, etc.), who authored it (a journalist, researcher, institution/corporation), and why it’s a credible source. (15 pts) 3. Use the ASM Handbook to find the ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of Titanium-6 Aluminum-4 Vanadium (AMS 4999 Ti-6Al-4V), the most commonly used titanium alloy in the aerospace, aircraft, automotive, and biomedical industries. Provide the answer and citation. (15 pts) 4. Use ASTM Standards to find the standard specification for dealing with additive manufacturing Titanium-6 Aluminum-4 Vanadium with powder bed fusion (PBF) components. In the standard, what is the final material chemistry composition needed for the metal powder? Copy & paste the table here and cite it. (15 pts) 5. Imagine you are interested in researching the application of PolyJet printing using composite polymers. Use the Scopus database to find what research has been done on this area. Answer the following: (25 pts) Provide a citation of a research article on this topic. What is the name of the journal the article was published in? Who are the authors? What are their affiliations? What year was the article published? Is the article available as PDF or do you have to request it via interlibrary loan? What is Scopus?
