... note describes how stereolithography was used to create over 25 accurate models, which were required to perform physical experiments to validate the results of the FEA. The note highlights how problems associated with STL and SLC file formats, support generation and software limitations were overcome...

...‐layer basis. The output of the process is a three‐dimensional “green” ceramic that is capable of being processed to a seamless, fully dense ceramic using traditional techniques. A detailed description is made of the necessary software and hardware for this new process. Also reviewed is the development...
