3D printing mechanically flexible composite materials with high electrical conductivity is currently hindered by the need to use high loading of conductive filler, which severely limits flexibility. Here, microstructural patterning of…
Foundation models are at the forefront of an increasing number of critical applications. In regards to technologies such as additive manufacturing (AM), these models have the potential to dramatically accelerate process optimization and, in…
We introduce a method to analyze and modify a shape to make it manufacturable for a given additive manufacturing (AM) process. Different AM technologies, process parameters or materials introduce geometric constraints on what is…
Additive Layer Manufacturing (ALM), also broadly known as 3D printing, is a new technology to produce 3D objects. As an opposite approach to the conventional subtractive manufacturing process, 3D objects are created by adding thin material…
An innovative way of producing large-scale unalloyed tantalum parts, based on the Wire + Arc Additive Manufacturing process, has been developed in this study. Two different unalloyed tantalum wires have been used to deposit 200-mm-long…
Microstructure evolution in metal additive manufacturing (AM) is a complex multi-physics and multi-scale problem. Understanding the impact of AM process conditions on the microstructure evolution and the resulting mechanical properties of…
Among the many additive manufacturing (AM) processes for metallic materials, selective laser melting (SLM) is arguably the most versatile in terms of its potential to realize complex geometries along with tailored microstructure. However,…
Twenty-one distinct AlxCoCrFeNi alloys were rapidly prepared by laser alloying an equiatomic CoCrFeNi substrate with Al powder to create an alloy library ranging x=0.15-1.32. Variations in crystal structure, microstructure and mechanical…
Homogenization is one of the critical stages in the post-heat treatment of additive manufacturing (AM) component to achieve uniform microstructure. During homogenization, grain coarsening could be an issue to reserve strength, which…
In this work, the mode I fracture toughness of dissimilar metal-composite adhesive joints is experimentally investigated using the double cantilever beam (DCB) test. The particular joint under study is resulted by the adhesive joining of a…
The importance of additive manufacturing (AM) to the future of product design and manufacturing systems demands educational programs tailored to embrace its fundamental principles and its innovative potential. Moreover, the breadth and…
Tungsten is the main candidate material for plasma-facing armour components in future fusion reactors. Bombardment with energetic fusion neutrons causes collision cascade damage and defect formation. Interaction of defects with helium,…
We study a cast Mg-4.65Al-2.82Ca alloy with a microstructure containing $\alpha$-Mg matrix reinforced with a C36 Laves phase skeleton. Such ternary alloys are targeted for elevated temperature applications in automotive engines since they…
Mixtures of Fe and Cu powders are cold-compacted and subsequently deformed with severe plastic deformation by high-pressure torsion, leading to bulk samples. The dilution of Fe in the Cu matrix is investigated with SQUID-magnetometry,…
The governing mechanistic behaviour of Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing (DED-AM) is revealed by a combined in situ and operando synchrotron X-ray imaging and diffraction study of a nickel-base superalloy, IN718. Using a…
Additive Manufacturing (AM), a.k.a. 3D Printing, is increasingly used to manufacture functional parts of safety-critical systems. AM's dependence on computerization raises the concern that the AM process can be tampered with, and a part's…
We consider the problem of fault-tolerance in nanoscale algorithmic self-assembly. We employ a variant of Winfree's abstract Tile Assembly Model (aTAM), the two-handed aTAM, in which square "tiles" -- a model of molecules constructed from…
First-principles density functional theory studies have been carried out for native defects and transition-metal (Ti and Ni) impurities in lithium alanate (LiAlH$_{4}$), a potential material for hydrogen storage. On the basis of our…
An additive manufacturing (AM) process, like laser powder bed fusion, allows for the fabrication of objects by spreading and melting powder in layers until a freeform part shape is created. In order to improve the properties of the material…
When modelling discontinuities (interfaces) using the finite element method, the standard approach is to use a conforming finite-element mesh in which the mesh matches the interfaces. However, this approach can prove cumbersome if the…
