N2  - Introduction; Principle of the inkjet; Mechanical layout inkjet printer; Design aspects of the carriage; Self-positioning; Thermal design; Design phase; Conclusion; Topics for discussion and self-study; Mechanical optimisation of a RF coupling system for a medical Linac by means of FMEA; Summary; Hadron therapy; ADAM's technological innovations; Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA); Case analysis: Mechanical optimisation of a RF coupling system for a medical Linac through FMEA; This book is not about serving ready-made conclusions, or a 'how to'-guide of advanced engineering design. It hopes to serve as a 'sharp radiography' of current practices, being neither the ultimate diagnosis nor a prognosis. It is a reference, a starting point for the kind of questioning and dialectic that makes engineering design such a uniquely fascinating, challenging and rewarding human endeavour
