Modelling and parameter optimization for filament deformation in 3D cementitious material printing using support vector machine by Liu, Zhixin, Li, Mingyang, Weng, Yiwei, Qian, Ye, Wong, Teck Neng, Tan, Ming Jen

“…The SVM model results showed that deformation of the printed filament is independent of plastic viscosity, however, material yield stress and relative nozzle travel speed significantly affect the deformation of the printed filament. Lastly, an empirical parametric associative model was proposed to predict the filament deformation based on material yield stress and relative nozzle travel speed.…”

Study of chemical vapor deposited carbon nanotubes as electrical interconnect by Ng, Chou Shing

“…Experiments are conducted with various thicknesses of Ti/TiN and Al/Al2O3 thin films in order to find a best fit solution that allows considerable growth of carbon nanotubes while as the same time minimizing the resistivity of the barrier layers. Last but not least, a comparison study is done to find out the differences in properties of the carbon nanotubes grown on the two thin films.…”
