    Abstract : Recent years has seen an unprecedented growth in emerging technologies like Additive manufacturing (AM), augmenting the manufacturing capabilities through a multitude of opportunities while also introducing unique constraints, such as support structures, and post-processing requirements. Taking full advantage of the potential of AM demands product designs to be optimised for both opportunities and constraints specific to AM, requiring evolution from the traditional design for manufacturing to design for additive manufacturing (DfAM).
