In recent times, smart manufacturing systems and materials are being utilized increasingly
for producing parts with high strength-to-weight ratios. Consolidation of several assembly …

Laser-based additive manufacturing (LBAM) has shown great potential in the development
of new metallic materials, especially in the design and fabrication of metal matrix composites …

As interfaces play a more important role in high-volume-fraction ceramic/metal composites
because of containing more hetero-phase interfaces, it is a great challenge to control the …

In this work, strengthening of 316L stainless steel was achieved through addition of 1 and 3
wt% TiC nanoparticles. The TiC nanoparticles and 316L powders were mixed using low …

Additive manufacturing of hard-to-weld nickel-based superalloys leads to the formation of
elongated columnar grain structures and hot cracks along the build direction. Changing the …

Grain refinement is one of the most effective approaches to improving mechanical
properties, reducing anisotropy and hot-cracking of additively manufactured alloys. Recent …

Poor mechanical strength and creep resistance limit the orthopedic application of
biodegradable Zinc (Zn). In present work, cerium (Ce) was alloyed with Zn using laser …

Hydrogen is considered as a primary energy carrier for the hydrogen economy. However,
hydrogen embrittlement (HE) is an inescapable problem that needs to be solved because …

Coarse columnar grains are always present in nickel-based superalloys fabricated by laser
powder bed fusion (LPBF), which not only causes anisotropy in mechanical properties, but …

In-situ Y 2 O 3 nanoparticles decorated Inconel 738 LC composite by powder mixture is
fabricated using laser powder bed fusion with different scan speeds and laser powers. The …
