The 3D printer technology is used to make fully working electric jet engines.



The new uses for 3D printing technology are jet engines and aircraft parts. The thing that makes material sometimes weak in 3D printing is that the air is making bubbles in structure. Metal-based 3D printing is a similar thing to other metal castings. In that process, the system operators must avoid oxygen slips in the 3D printing. Normally air is the thing that makes bubbles and oxides in the layer. 

So that's why the 3D printer should operate in the vacuum chamber that is removing the air from the system and denies oxidation. When the 3D printer is making merchandise. that system is making things by welding them layer by layer. So the product looks like a croissant that is made by using metals or carbon fiber. 

The problem is that when the gasses like air or oxygen slips between those layers it causes bubbles and oxidation. That slag material is making the discontinuity in the merchandise. And this is the reason why the gas must remove around the working area. The metal-based 3D printer is a modified MIG welding machine.  There is also possible to connect the laser system to that 3D printing system. The laser measures the dimensions of the parts. And the laser can also be used for finishing those parts. 




The developing technology allows for the creation of more qualified machines and machine parts. 3D printer technology can use to make car engines, like bocks and pistons, other machine parts, turbines, and even cannons for military use. The only thing that limits the system is the operating temperature. The high-temperature systems can make the system operate with stronger metals like steel, titanium, and chrome. 

The 3D printer technology is developed in NASA and other space agencies. That kind of system is more flexible than carrying some spare parts with them. The 3D printer systems can also use to fix holes in the body of spacecraft. So they are extremely powerful systems in space and other technical industries. 

The metal-based 3D printing technology allows making the gun parts and guns. The 3D printer systems are also used to make parts for high-stress points in super- and hypersonic aircraft. The 3D printer systems can combine with CAD programs. And they can turn to ultimate CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing).

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
