Download or read book How to Build a 3D Printer written by Marinescu and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EASY CoreXY M350 is a medium size 3D Printer born from the desire of making something simple to build, where only basic tools are needed but in the same time the expectation of the RepRap Makers are fully met: printing precision, rigid structure, safety, bed leveling, configurability and multi-filament printing.The 'corexy'-architecture is a very practically and cost effective solution for cartesian 3d printers and that is the reason why I've preferred this concept. The model 'M350' earned his name from the fact that all the aluminum profiles from the frame are exactly 350mm long - this simplifies already from beginning a lot of aspects concerning the building of the frame.The Book is a building manual which describes a strait forward process with easy to follow steps. There are no stories about 3d printing, the focus is set up on printing the necessary components, mechanical construction, electrical harness, wiring diagram and firmware. Everything is described using pictures from 3d and from reality, the text is in simple plain English.There were used as much as possible standard components for RepRap 3d printers - this gives the complete freedom when it comes on deciding from where to purchase the needed components. The number and dimension of the 3d-printed elements were kept at minimum in order to optimize the time and cost of printing process

Download or read book EVOLUTION written by Leonid E. Grinin and published by ООО "Издательство "Учитель". This book was released on with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume is the sixth issue of the ‘Evolution’ Yearbook series. Our Yearbooks are designed to present to its readers the widest possible spectrum of subjects and issues: from universal evolutionism to the analysis of particular evolutionary regularities in the development of biological, abiotic, and social systems, culture, cognition, language, etc. The main objective of our Yearbook is the creation of a unified interdisciplinary field of research, within which scientists specializing in different disciplines could work within the framework of unified or similar paradigms, using common terminology and searching for common rules, tendencies and regularities. Global evolution (in connection with the Big History) becomes the main subject of our Yearbook. We strive to arrange each issue in such a way that the line from cosmic evolution to the human future is evident. Similar to the previous issues, this Yearbook shows some aspects of the evolutionary advance from the earlier phases to the anticipated future of human society. But on the whole, this volume is devoted to different aspects and facts of megaevolution and some universal theories in an attempt to find common ground in the diversity of manifestation of evolution and its forms at different stages of development. The title of this issue ‘Evolutionary Trends, Aspects, and Patterns’ is fully justified. The volume consists of four sections: Big History's Phases and Long-Term Trends; Cosmic Evolution; The Aspects of Socio-Cultural and Political Evolution; and Looking from the Past into the Future. As before, we strive to arrange every issue in such a way that the line from cosmic evolution to the human future is evident. Megahistory and global evolution still are the main subjects of our Yearbook. This Yearbook will be useful both for those who study interdisciplinary macroproblems and for specialists working in focused directions, as well as for those who are interested in evolutionary issues of Cosmology, Biology, History, Anthropology, Economics and other areas of study. More than that, this edition will challenge and excite your vision of your own life and the new discoveries going on around us.

Download or read book History Mathematics written by Leonid E. Grinin and published by ООО "Издательство "Учитель". This book was released on with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Yearbook ‘History and Mathematics’ has already celebrated its 10th anniversary and has confidently entered its second decade. The common feature of all our Yearbooks, including the present volume, is the usage of formal methods and social studies methods intheir synthesis to analyze different historical phenomena. The present Yearbook (which is the seventh in the series) is subtitled ‘Big History Aspects’. This issue is devoted to the problems of evolutionary development of the world. In no way will it be a digression from the direction which we have initially defined for ourYearbook, but just an extension of the scope of the research. The matter is that there are two kinds of history: the history of nature (or more exactly the Universe and the Earth) and the history of humans and mankind. It is not surprising that the idea of historicism penetrated almost every scientific field. At the same time the search for common foundations of this endless in its diversity world has intensified. One of the directions of this interdisciplinary search for the unity of the world in its diversity is Universal Evolutionism (Big History). Mathematical and formal methods help to understand much deeply both natural and human history. This issue of the Yearbook consists of four main sections: (I) Patterns of Big History; (II) Hypotheses of Deep Big History; (III) Biological Aspects; (IV) History and Future of Social Systems. We hope that this issue will be interesting and useful both for historians and mathematicians, as well as for all those dealing with various social and natural sciences.

Download or read book 3D Printing with Biomaterials written by A.J.M. van Wijk and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Additive manufacturing or 3D printing, manufacturing a product layer by layer, offers large design freedom and faster product development cycles, as well as low startup cost of production, on-demand production and local production. In principle, any product could be made by additive manufacturing. Even food and living organic cells can be printed. We can create, design and manufacture what we want at the location we want. 3D printing will create a revolution in manufacturing, a real paradigm change. 3D printing holds the promise to manufacture with less waste and energy. We can print metals, ceramics, sand, synthetic materials such as plastics, food or living cells. However, the production of plastics is nowadays based on fossil fuels. And that’s where we witness a paradigm change too. The production of these synthetic materials can be based also on biomaterials with biomass as feedstock. A wealth of new and innovative products are emerging when we combine these two paradigm changes: 3D printing and biomaterials. Moreover, the combination of 3D printing with biomaterials holds the promise to realize a truly sustainable and circular economy.
