Informal International Partners

We continued our informal international collaborations, in particular with Bernhard Thomaszewski (University of Montréal) on clay support structures [13] and microstructure design [14].

We are pursuing our joint research effort on slicing and curved 3D printing [11] with Charlie C.L. Wang (The Chinese University of Hong Kong), Sara McMains (University of California Berkeley), Brian Wyvill (University of Victoria), Daniele Panozzo (NYU), and Marc Alexa (TU-Berlin).

We have an ongoing collaboration with Tim Kuipers (TU Delft/Ultimaker) on algorithms for process planning.

Visits of International Scientists

We have invited Tim Kuipers, a developer at Ultimaker in the Netherlands, and a PhD student at TU Delft, to join us on an ongoing project in which Samuel Hornus and Sylvain Lefebvre are involved together with the GAMBLE team of Inria Nancy. Tim visited us in Nancy for 3 weeks in September.
