== The Map is Not the Terrain: Materials and Makers ==
Lecturer: Debbie Chachra, PhD;
Associate Professor of Materials Science
http://www.debcha.com
Additive manufacturing (3D printing) is opening up a world of opportunity: to
make
iterated, one-off, or complex objects, without large-scale industrial equipment.
But the digital description of an object is not the object itself. To maximise
the
potential of 3D printing, makers need to think about materials: what materials
can
be used, how processing affects the properties, and post-processing of
fabricated
objects. This talk (and demos) will get you to think about what you already know
about materials, begin to learn how the material properties change with
manufacturing
techniques, and encourage to explore (and increase!) the range of materials you
use.
Speaker: Deb Chachra is an an associate professor at the Franklin W. Olin
College
of Engineering. - She writes:
» I’M AN EDUCATOR AND RESEARCHER. I do research on the engineering student
experience,
and work with faculty from other engineering schools to help them develop and
use new
curricula and pedagogies. I also facilitate workshops around gender and
technology.
I write a quarterly column, Reinvention, for ASEE Prism magazine. I’M A
MATERIALS
SCIENTIST. I study biological materials, mostly. Right now my students and I are
investigating a type of plastic made by bees. I DO OTHER THINGS. [...] I LIKE TO
TALK TO PEOPLE. [...] « -- read more on www.debcha.com and in her CV
