The Environmental Impacts of Metal Powder Bed Additive Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) is widely recognized as a critical pillar of advanced manufacturing and is moving from the design shop to the factory floor. As AM processes become more popular, it is paramount that engineers ...
An Environmental and Cost Analysis of Stamping Sheet Metal Parts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Little work has been done on quantifying the environmental impacts and costs of sheet metal stamping. In this work, we present models that can be used to predict the energy requirements, global warming potential, human ...
A Dynamic Material Flow Model for Risk-Informed Decision-Making in Decarbonizing Global Aluminum Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Aluminum is the world's second most consumed metal, and its production contributes substantially to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. When formulating decarbonization strategies, it is imperative to ensure their ...
