Additive manufacturing also known as three- dimensional, 3D- printing, is the process of joining materials to make objects from 3D model data, usually layer upon layer. Contrary to conventional manufacturing techniques such as machining and stamping, that fabricate products by removing materials from a larger stock or sheet metal, in additive manufacturing final shapes are created by adding material and the addition of materials one layer at a time, corresponding to the cross section of the sliced 3D model.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3044\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3044\" style=\"width: 791px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3044\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218.png\" alt=\"The 3D printed Airbus concept plane, here by 2050\" width=\"791\" height=\"500\" data-credit=\"Bionic Aircraft Project\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218.png 1657w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218-1024x648.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218-768x486.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218-1536x971.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung1-e1590133437218-1100x696.png 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3044\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The 3D printed Airbus concept plane, here by 2050<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The aim of this scientific research is to investigate and define desired geometrical and material characteristics for 3D printed specimens integrated with electrical functions to adopt in aerospace industry.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3050\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3050\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3050\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung2en-e1590479221226.png\" alt=\"Design approaches for 3D test specimen\" width=\"500\" height=\"356\" data-credit=\"HSU \/ EES\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung2en-e1590479221226.png 913w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung2en-e1590479221226-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/www.hsu-hh.de\/ees\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/680\/2020\/05\/Abbildung2en-e1590479221226-768x547.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3050\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Design approaches for 3D test specimen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Beneficial geometrical approaches for systematic comparison tests<\/h2>\n<p>To assess the qualification of AM specimens integrated to electrical functions, different electrical measurements should be done.
