Exploring the feasibility of producing near-net-shape components with advanced properties and geometrical features via 3D printing has incrementally become research focus various studies. Digital light processing (DLP) technology can manufacture complex-structured for technical applications. The aims this were to investigate Al2O3 ceramic slurry preparation procedures identify ideal add an in-house-developed slurry, determine optimal DLP parameters conditions while understanding their effect...
IN738LC alloy has broad application potential in modern aerospace and energy industries due to its excellent high-temperature durability, corrosion fatigue resistance, however, been greatly limited high crack sensitivity. To address this challenge, research proposes a method of incorporating TiC nanoparticles mitigate cracks enhance the strength nickel-based materials. The crack-free TiC-IN738LC materials were successfully fabricated using laser-powder bed fusion. relationship between...
TC11 titanium alloy is widely used in aerospace. To investigate the production of parts high quality and performance, this paper adopts Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) technique to prepare specimens. We analyze detail effects scanning strategy forming angle on performance through a combination theory experiment. The results show that upper surface strip-scanned molded highest, better than side under different strategies. channel lap adhesion were main factors affecting roughness. With...
Abstract Piezoelectric ceramics are widely used in sensors, actuators, and ultrasonic transducers due to their ability achieve efficient conversion between electric mechanical energy. There is a current drive toward lead‐free material systems capable of achieving comparable piezoelectric performance environmentally hazardous, but commonly used, lead‐based materials such as lead zirconate titanate. This work constructs an accurate phase diagram for barium calcium titanate (Ba 1‐x Ca x TiO 3...
Abstract Induction heating-assisted single point incremental sheet forming was established for Ti-6Al-4V thin sheets at closed and above beta-transus temperature (980 °C). In order to eliminate geometric inaccuracy adherence of lubricant on the surface caused by elevated temperature, a cooling system designed tool decrease thermal expansion friction. A radial basis function (RBF)-based path optimisation developed study measured accuracy, force. By adjusting control integrating RBF framework,...
In this work, a numerical model is proposed to analyze the influence of particle–particle interaction in laser directed energy deposition or LMD (laser metal deposition) CM247 Ni-based superalloy. The based on analysis contact between particles and potential agglomeration powder predict conditions at nozzle exit. Simulation results were experimentally validated good agreement was observed. At exit mainly large (>100 µm) are found small ones (<10 tend flow away from region. This also observed...
Abstract The uniform thickness hollow axle is one of the lightest weight axles in high-speed rail industry. It can effectively reduce unsprung mass and further improve train speed. Therefore, due to its importance significance, it crucial research develop axle. To understand microstructural evolution during three-roll skew-rolling (TRSR) forming, 30CrMoA alloy steel was used this study. A constitutive model established by SIMUFACT FORMING finite element software utilized simulate...
