Cold Sprayed Hydroxyapatite Coatings for Orthopaedic Implants
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a natural compound (Ca10 (PO4)6(OH) 2) found in human bone and clinical research has shown that HA coated orthopaedic implants improve the ingrowth and... -
Phase transformation stress in titanium alloys in additive manufacturing
Residual Stresses are a big challenge in 3D printing. They develop because the deposited material cools down, but it cannot shrink.One of the most widely used materials in 3D... -
Effect of texture on generation of intergranular stresses in 316H
Intergranular stresses are generated in polycrystalline material due to anisotropic deformation during monotonic and cyclic loading. Such generated intergranular stresses can... -
Mechanical Behaviour of a Dual Phase High Manganese Steel
A newly developed dual phase high manganese steel has the potential to exceed the mechanical properties of many current state of the art advanced high strength automotive and... -
Characterisation of residual stresses generated by laser cladding and shock p...
Laser cladding is a process that improve the mehcanical properties of metal.It works by fusing a thin layer of additional metal to the original surface.However,tensile residual... -
Development and Control of Residual Stress in Intersections of Large Scale Me...
Metal Additive Manufacturing can be used to build smart structural features and parts. Residual Stress and distortion is probably the biggest challenge. Lab-scale parts with... -
