The printing press first came into effect around 1440 as a part of the Roman empire and became one of the most important if not the important invention in human history. The printing press was a machine that gave users the ability to print large amounts of paper. This opened new doors for society because before the printing press it was very difficult to produce literature. Individuals would often have to write out a whole piece of literature which could take up a large amount of time. The printing

What is 3D printing? 3D printing is a process of making three-dimensional solid objects from a digital file. Using additive processes creates a 3D printed object. An additive process is a form of successive layering. Each piece of the object is created in layers until the entire object is printed. Every layer can be seen as a thinly sliced piece of the object. How does it work? To create a 3D object one must first start with a virtual design. The design is made in a computer aided design (CAD)

The Printing Press There have been many important inventions over the past millennium. Many of them have helped shape society into what it is today. None however have contributed as much to the world as the printing press has. The printing press was invented in the year 1440 by Johann Gutenberg of Mainz‚ Germany. The printing press consisted of a large press which held plates where movable type could be inserted to spell out entire books page by page. The press was either operated by a large

Chapter 4 Solutions 2. You have just won $10 million in the state lottery which promises to pay you $1 million (tax free) every year for the next ten years. Have you really won $10 million? No‚ because the present discounted value of these payments is necessarily less than $10 million as long as the interest rate is greater than zero. 3. If the interest rate is 10%‚ what is the present value of a security that pays you $1‚100 next year‚ $1‚210 the year after‚ and $1‚331 the year after

Computer Structure and Logic Week 10 Research Project 3D Printing Today and Tomorrow I chose to do my research paper on 3D printing‚ were we are today and what the future looks like. While researching this project I learned that 3D printing has been around since the 80’s‚ and that it is also known as additive manufacturing. I chose this topic for a few reasons; first off this is a topic that has interested me fo a while now and I enjoy learning more about it. I believe this technology
