Study of the Corrosion Resistance of 316L Stainless Steel Made by Directed Energy Deposition for Applications at an Elevated Temperature

Description: The corrosion resistance under elevated temperature of additively manufactured 316L stainless steel made by directed energy deposition was studied. Test samples were prepared in a hybrid additive manufacturing machine using standard deposition parameters recommended by the manufacturer. Control samples were cut from wrought material to compare the results. The test was performed under a corrosive atmosphere with a solution of water with 3.5 % in weight of salt (NaCl). The total duration of the … more

Structural Analysis and Finite Element Modeling of Aluminum Honeycomb Sandwich Structures

Description: The objective of this research is to determine how the sandwich's physical characteristics have an impact on the mechanical properties, determine under what conditions the specimens will be lighter and mechanically stronger, and determine if the use of an aluminum honeycomb sandwich as a construction material is feasible. The research has aimed at the use of aluminum sandwiches as light and strong material. The study of the structural layers' damage resistance and tolerance demonstrated that th… more

Fabrication and Testing of Polymeric Flexible Sheets with Asymmetric Distributed Magnetic Particles for Biomedical Actuated Devices

Description: This thesis explores a method to fabricate magnetic membranes with asymmetric distribution of particles and their testing as actuators. Focus of this research is to fabricate thin polymeric sheets and thickness range of 120-125µm, with asymmetric distribution of magnetic nano particles, employing micromagnets during the fabrication. The micromagnets are used to localize the magnetic particles during the curing process at selected locations. The effect of the asymmetric distribution of magnetic … more
