The objective of the 3D-SCALO problem is to assign the given components to optimal mounting surfaces and position them at the best locations, while satisfying the requirements for (1) heat dissipation ...

Metal 3D printed elements typically always undergo thermal treatment after their fabrication. It reduces the internal stresses formed during manufacturing and modifies the morphology of the element.

Three-dimensional printing was born in the 1980s, and, since then, the additive approach to manufacturing that it enables has gradually unseated traditional, subtractive concepts of industrial ...
