Smart 3D printing (Integrating CAD, CAPP and 3D printing )
3D printing is changing the traditional manufacturing technology paradigm for flexible and agile product development processes. However, the traditional CAD/CAPP processes investigations have been made for traditional CAM technologies. This thesis topic tries to reform and establish new paradigm for integration of 3D printing processes with CAD/CAPP.

Manufacturing service composition model for robust manufacturing supply network design
Cloud manufacturing (CM) is one of the well-known enablers of Industry 4.0. CM has an XaaS (Everything as a Service) approach. Using this perspective, a new look to supply network configuration is inspired. This thesis focuses on a new model for configuring supply network considering the uncertainties in operations fulfillment by service providers.
