Abstract Conventional means of producing material via metal casting have long been used for centuries. In spite its advantages in durable parts with lower cost implications and the accommodation large part production, this conventional approach is still characterized by challenges high lead time patterns poor surface finish, need secondary manufacturing operations, which always leads to loss. H...

Abstract Over the last decade, enormous potential of metal additive manufacturing (AM) processes has led these technologies to establish their position in many industries. Much effort is being made toward widespread application; however, much remains be done achieve full industrialization processes. Therefore, companies, research centers and universities are investing comprehensive development ...

In the era of COVID-19, it has been challenging to feel connected one another in meaningful ways. During these unprecedented times, we have had chance reflect upon ways created significant bonds with people our lives, including residents, faculty, and patients. Looking back, experience that found both unexpectedly moving particularly was act connecting each other by examining art together. Inst...

Nickel-based alloy metal matrix composite (NAMMC) is a new type of material which expected to replace traditional Nickel-base superalloy used in the manufacture important hot-end components aerospace, naval ships and industrial gas turbine engines due its excellent high temperature strength, superior thermal fatigue resistance, oxidation resistance corrosion resistance. However, these outstandi...

Novel nanocomposite films based on amylose (AM) and Fe3+-montmorillonite (Fe3+–MMT) in the matrix of poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) were fabricated by using a solution casting method. The X-Ray diffractional analysis indicated that an ion-exchange process occurred between Fe3+–MMT and PVP. Thermogravimetrical analysis (TGA), differential termogravivetrical analy...
