Lattice implants that generate homeostatic and remodeling strains in bone
Bone remodeling is mediated by several factors including strain. An increase in strain between 1% and 10% compared to homeostasis can trigger bone formation. We aim to create an orthopedic implant using clinically established imaging and manufacturing methods that induces this strain control in human bone. Titanium scaffolds were manufactured with ...
Suppression of adiabatic shear band formation by martensitic transformation of retained austenite during split Hopkinson...
In this study, a high-strength bainitic steel was fabricated and austempered at 350 ?C for 15 min, 90 min, and 24 h to control the volume fraction of retained austenite (RA) while keeping an appropriate hardness level. Their dynamic compressive properties were investigated in relation to the ASB formation and cracking by the SHPB. The specimen aust...
Alloy design against the solidification cracking in fusion additive manufacturing: An application to FeCrAl alloy
This study developed a design methodology against liquid-state cracking by combining the Scheil–Gulliver solidification simulations and Machine Learning analysis to design alloys for Fusion Additive Manufacturing. Applying this design approach resulted in a Fe–20Cr–7Al–4Mo–3Ni. The alloy was successfully printed with relative densities of over 99%....
Parametric optimization for improving the machining process of Cu/Mo-SiCP composites produced by powder metallurgy
The features of composite materials such as production flexibility, lightness, and excellent strength put them in the class of materials that attract attention in various critical areas, i.e., aerospace, defense, automotive, and shipbuilding. However, the machining of composite materials displays challenges due to the difficulty in obtaining struct...
Enhanced negative thermal expansion of boron-doped Fe43Mn28Ga28.97B0.03 alloy
...
Enhanced negative thermal expansion (NTE) properties are achieved by introducing a little amount of boron in the Fe43Mn28Ga28.97B0.03 alloy. As a result, this alloy shows a giant NTE coefficient of alpha(1) = -79.7 x 10(-6) K-1 in a wide temperature range from 277 K to 136 K. Compared to the NTE characteristics in Fe43Mn28Ga29, the NTE operation te...

Valorising slags from non-ferrous metallurgy into hybrid cementitious binders: Mix design and performance
The environmental impact of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) can be decreased by using alternative precursors, such as non-ferrous metallurgy slags (NFMS), which can be alkali-activated to form an inorganic polymer binder (IP). However, an IP demands the use of a high molarity alkali-solution, which is expensive, has a relative high environmental foo...
