Fabricating Tinicu Ternary Shape Memory Alloy By Directed Energy Deposition Via Elemental Metal Powders, Yitao Chen, Xinchang Zhang, Mohammad Masud Parvez, Joseph William Newkirk, Frank W. Liou Jun 2021

Fabricating Tinicu Ternary Shape Memory Alloy By Directed Energy Deposition Via Elemental Metal Powders, Yitao Chen, Xinchang Zhang, Mohammad Masud Parvez, Joseph William Newkirk, Frank W. Liou

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this paper, a TiNiCu shape memory alloy single-wall structure was fabricated by the directed energy deposition technique with a mixture of elemental Ti, Ni, and Cu powders following the atomic percentage of Ti50Ni45Cu5 to fully utilize the material flexibility of the additive manufacturing process to develop ternary shape memory alloys. The chemical composition, phase, and material properties at multiple locations along the build direction were studied, using scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Vickers hardness test-ing, tensile testing, and differential scanning calorimetry. The location-dependent compositions of martensitic TiNi and austenitic TiNi phases, mechanical properties, and functional properties …


Real-Time Monitoring Of Fdm 3d Printer For Fault Detection Using Machine Learning: A Bibliometric Study, Vaibhav Kisan Kadam, Satish Kumar, Arunkumar Bongale May 2021

Real-Time Monitoring Of Fdm 3d Printer For Fault Detection Using Machine Learning: A Bibliometric Study, Vaibhav Kisan Kadam, Satish Kumar, Arunkumar Bongale

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Additive Manufacturing has wide application range including healthcare, Fashion, Manufacturing, Prototypes, Tooling etc. AM techniques are subjected to various defects that may be printing defects or anomalies in machine. There is gap between current AM techniques and smart manufacturing since current AM lacks in build sensors necessary for process monitoring and fault detection. Both of these issues can be solved by incorporating real-time monitoring into AM. So the study is carried out to identify recent work done in AM to improve current system. For this bibliometric study Scopus database is used, study is kept limited to year 2010-2021 and English …


Effects Of Process Parameters And Meso-Structures On Dissipative Properties Of Additively Manufactured Structures, Peter Berube May 2021

Effects Of Process Parameters And Meso-Structures On Dissipative Properties Of Additively Manufactured Structures, Peter Berube

Honors College

With approximately 5.9 million vehicular collisions in the United States per year, the ability of a vehicle to absorb energy during a collision is critical to reducing the likelihood and severity of injuries. A primary means to absorb energy during a collision is a crush tube, which is a predominantly-prismatic-shaped, metallic structure located at the front or rear of a vehicle intended to absorb energy by progressively buckling in addition to dissipating energy, crush tubes must be light weight to reduce vehicular green-house gas emissions, resilient to fatigue, resilient to environmental exposure, and economically feasible to manufacture. Historically, these competing …


The Corrosion Of Stainless Steel Made By Additive Manufacturing: A Review, Gyeongbin Ko, Wooseok Kim, Kyungjung Kwon, Tae-Kyu Lee Mar 2021

The Corrosion Of Stainless Steel Made By Additive Manufacturing: A Review, Gyeongbin Ko, Wooseok Kim, Kyungjung Kwon, Tae-Kyu Lee

Mechanical and Materials Engineering Faculty Publications and Presentations

The advantages of additive manufacturing (AM) of metals over traditional manufacturing methods have triggered many relevant studies comparing the mechanical properties, corrosion behavior, and microstructure of metals produced by AM or traditional manufacturing methods. This review focuses exclusively on the corrosion property of AM-fabricated stainless steel by comprehensively analyzing the relevant literature. The principles of various AM processes, which have been adopted in the corrosion study of stainless steel, and the corrosion behaviors of stainless steel depending on the AM process, the stainless steel type, and the corrosion environment are summarized. In this comprehensive analysis of relevant literature, we extract …


Absorption Of Nitrogen During Pulsed Wave L-Pbf Of 17-4 Ph Steel, Ben Brown, Joseph William Newkirk, Frank W. Liou Feb 2021

Absorption Of Nitrogen During Pulsed Wave L-Pbf Of 17-4 Ph Steel, Ben Brown, Joseph William Newkirk, Frank W. Liou

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In the fabrication of 17-4 PH by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) the well-documented occurrence of large amounts of retained austenite can be attributed to an elevated concentration of nitrogen present in the material. While the effects of continuous wave (CW) laser processing on in-situ nitrogen absorption characteristics have been evaluated, power modulated pulsed wave (PW) laser processing effects have not. In this study the effects of PW L-PBF processing of 17-4 PH on nitrogen absorption, phase composition, and mechanical performance are explored using commercially available PW L-PBF equipment and compared to samples produced by CW L-PBF. PW L-PBF samples …
