This award supports a NIST/NSF workshop focused on basic research associated with measurement science and polymer-based additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing describes a collection of manufacturing processes that produce parts layer-by-layer, controlled by a computer, and without the use of expensive tools or dies. This manufacturing strategy has been an enabling technology for a large number of existing and emerging applications, and the approach has become widespread in recent years. Additive manufacturing is expected to fundamentally change the nature of advanced manufacturing and revolutionize many areas of research in the 21st Century. In recent years, significant materials research has been focused on additive manufacturing using metals or composites. However, polymers remain an essential material, with broad industry interest, applications, and ability to enable new research. The workshop will therefore address and help realize the full potential of polymer-based additive manufacturing. The workshop will last 1.5 days, and will include thought leaders from industry, government and academe to characterize the current state of the art, summarize the existing roadmapping efforts, and identify technical gaps and basic research needs. Of particular interest is the application of measurement science to polymer-based additive manufacturing. Invited speakers will make presentations regarding the current state of polymer-based AM and existing roadmapping efforts. Breakout sessions will then take place to extract the research needs and future directions of polymer-based additive manufacturing from the participants. The objectives of the workshop are to: (1) review the state-of-the-art in basic research and the existing roadmap in polymer-based additive manufacturing; (2) examine future prospects of polymer-based additive manufacturing and sharing of perspectives on basic research needs; (3) identify needs, gaps, and challenges, especially as relates to basic research and metrology; and (4) formulate recommendations for basic research initiatives.

该奖项支持NIST/NSF专注于与测量科学和聚合物添加剂制造相关的基础研究的研讨会。加法制造是指在计算机的控制下，不使用昂贵的工具或模具，一层一层地生产零件的制造工艺的集合。这一制造战略已经成为大量现有和新兴应用的使能技术，并且这种方法在最近几年变得广泛。加法制造有望从根本上改变先进制造的本质，并在21世纪给许多研究领域带来革命性的变化。近年来，重要的材料研究一直集中在使用金属或复合材料的添加剂制造上。然而，聚合物仍然是一种重要的材料，具有广泛的行业兴趣、应用和能力，能够进行新的研究。因此，该研讨会将解决并帮助实现聚合物添加剂制造的全部潜力。研讨会将持续1.5天，将包括来自行业、政府和学术界的思想领袖，以描述当前的艺术状态，总结现有的路线图工作，并确定技术差距和基础研究需求。特别令人感兴趣的是测量科学在聚合物添加剂制造中的应用。受邀的演讲者将介绍基于聚合物的AM的现状和现有的路线图工作。然后将举行分组会议，从与会者那里提取聚合物添加剂制造的研究需求和未来方向。研讨会的目标是：(1)审查基础研究的最新进展和聚合物添加剂制造的现有路线图；(2)审查聚合物添加剂制造的未来前景和分享基础研究需求的观点；(3)确定需求、差距和挑战，特别是与基础研究和计量学相关的需求；以及(4)为基础研究倡议制定建议。
