3-D Printed Car Is as Strong as Steel, Half the Weight, and Nearing Production | Autopia | Wired.com | WEBOLUTION! | Scoop.it

Kor and his team built the three-wheel, two-passenger vehicle at RedEye, an on-demand 3-D printing facility. The printers he uses create ABS plastic via Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM). The printer sprays molten polymer to build the chassis layer by microscopic layer until it arrives at the complete object. The machines are so automated that the building process they perform is known as “lights out” construction, meaning Kor uploads the design for a bumper, walk away, shut off the lights and leaves. A few hundred hours later, he’s got a bumper. The whole car – which is about 10 feet long – takes about 2,500 hours.

Don’t have a plan to capture tacit knowledge? Your KM strategy is incomplete.

"Knowledge Management professionals acknowledge that the two main types of knowledge are tacit and explicit. The differences between the two are vast, yet only one is the most important: tacit. Despite the fact that many Knowledge Management (KM) researchers believe that around 80% of organizational knowledge consists of tacit knowledge, there are far more KM tools available for capturing explicit knowledge. Why is this?"

Setup a motivation strategy in order to pull colleagues to share their knowledge.

Around 80% of organizational knowledge consists of tacit knowledge. we need to create opportunities and incentives for joint learning, sharing of insights, reflection and mentoring.

I'm interested in making organisations more effective by letting members of that organisation collaborate more effectively. the added value of an organisation comes from its people, more than from processes or technology. Collaboration, like sharing tacit knowledge, is a social process. I think this article is interesting for me because it provides a little bit of background on the nature of knowledge.
