Auburn leads statewide NASA project on simulation-based qualification for additive manufacturing

Auburn's reputation for additive manufacturing (AM) research has again preceded itself. A team of faculty from Samuel Ginn College of Engineering and Harbert College of Business, composed mostly of leadership and affiliated faculty within Auburn University's National Center for Additive Manufacturing Excellence (NCAME), received $750,000 in funding for their winning NASA EPSCoR — Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research — project proposal to investigate the structural integrity of additively manufactured (AM) metallic materials. The team also includes researchers from the University of Alabama-Tuscaloosa and University of Alabama-Huntsville.

FAA invests $3 million in Auburn University additive manufacturing research

Thanks to a recent $3 million grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the National Center for Additive Manufacturing Excellence (NCAME) at Auburn University will soon initiate a two-year project focused on improving commercial air travel through the use of 3D-printed (or additively manufactured) metal components.
