Over the last few years, fused filament fabrication (FFF) has become one of the most promising and widely used techniques for the rapid prototyping process. A number of studies have also shown the possibility of FFF being used for the fabrication of functional products, such as biomedical implants and automotive components. However, the poor mechanical properties possessed by FFF-processed products are considered one of the major shortcomings of this technique. Over the last decade, many researchers have attempted to improve the mechanical properties of FFF-processed products using several strategies—for instance, by applying the short fiber reinforcement (SFR), continuous fiber reinforcement (CFR), powder addition reinforcement (PAR), vibration-assisted FFF (VA-FFF) methods, as well as annealing. In this paper, the details of all these reinforcement techniques are reviewed. The abilities of each method in improving tensile, flexural, and compressive strength are discussed.

Revised proof, This chapter focuses on the reinforcement of traditional timber carpentry joints according to different standards, recommendations, case studies, as well as analytical, numerical and experimental research works. The aim of the review is to present the state-of-the-art methodologies that can be at the disposal of carpenters, architects and engineers. In order to understand how traditional carpentry joints, work and their failure mechanisms, such as compressive crushing, shear and tensile cracks, six geometrical typologies of such joints are discussed. Finally, for the above typologies, several reinforcement strategies are presented by defining their objectives, methodologies, traditional and contemporary techniques, performance criteria and applicability areas. When assessing and reinforcing traditional carpentry joints, some challenges may come up, namely their design, based on the ratios of stiffness and load-bearing capacities. These challenges should thus be a focal point for further research in the near future., (undefined)
