  • Anaesthetic Mouthpiece Development through QFD and Customer Interaction with Functional Prototypes 
    Booysen, G.J.; Barnard, L.J.; Truscott, M.; de Beer, D.J. (Emerald: Rapid Prototyping Journal, 2006)
    The paper reflects on the development of a medical product using rapid prototyping technologies and customer interaction through a quality function deployment (QFD) approach to speed up the process, and to result in customer ...
  • Physical modeling of catchment area by rapid prototyping using GIS data 
    Agrawall, Sanat; Antunes, João Paulo; Theron, Elizabeth; Truscott, Michele; de Beer, Deon J. (Emerald: Rapid Prototyping Journal, 2006)
    The purpose of the present work is to develop a methodology for making physical models of catchment areas and terrains by rapid prototyping (RP) using geographic information systems (GIS) data. It is also intended to reduce ...
  • Rapid Tooling in support of accelerated new product development 
    de Beer, Deon; Booysen, Gerrie; Barnard, Ludrick; Truscott, Michèle (Emerald: Assembly Automation, 2005)
    The paper examines whether additive manufacturing can deliver durable injection‐moulding tools – fast, reliable, accurate and economic. Researchers from the Central University of Technology, Free State (CUT), South Africa, ...
  • Three‐dimensional plotting as a visualisation aid for architectural use 
    de Beer, Deon J.; Barnard, Ludrick J.; Booysen, Gerrie J. (Emerald: Rapid Prototyping Journal, 2004)
    Functional design is closely linked to manufacturing and building. Designers' freedom to express themselves is often limited by the capabilities of craftsmen who have to give physical substance to the designer's ideas. ...
  • Using RP to promote collaborative design of customised medical implants 
    Truscott, Michèle; de Beer, Deon; Vicatos, George; Hosking, Keith; Barnard, Ludrick; Booysen, Gerrie; Campbell, R. Ian (Emerald: Rapid Prototyping Journal, 2007)
    The last decade has seen major advances in rapid prototyping (RP), with it becoming a multi‐disciplinary technology, crossing various research fields, and connecting continents. Process and material advancements open up ...
