Additive manufacturing (AM) arrived with multiple benefits that reshaped the perspective of manufacturing but along with new technologies come new problems that need to be resolved which include uncertainties of mechanical and chemical properties, and poor surface quality of as-built components. We resolve these challenges through a systematic study involving material characterization, machinability assessment, development of novel tools, and investigations on support structure removal. The culmination of our research findings have been summarized in our book.
