Book Friction Stir Processing of Laser Metal Deposited Ti 6Al 4V

Download or read book Friction Stir Processing of Laser Metal Deposited Ti 6Al 4V written by Romy Francis and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Laser metal deposition (LMD) can form near net shaped components for aerospace applications. Ti-6Al-4V is a widely used aerospace alloy and fabrication of this alloy using LMD is gaining popularity. Improved mechanical properties are always a requirement in aerospace alloys and research is constantly being conducted to improve the properties of components formed from this alloy. Friction Stir Processing (FSP) in the past has been used as a method to change the surface properties of materials through microstructural modifications. The changes in properties can include hardness, corrosion resistance, fatigue strength, etc. The first section of this thesis is based on a similar concept to modify the surface properties of the laser deposited Ti-6Al-4V through FSP. Microstructural changes in the Ti-6Al-4V laser deposits due to FSP and subsequent laser deposition has been presented. The microstructure was characterized by the SEM and optical microscope. Variations in the microhardness inside the nugget region have also been discussed. The second section of the thesis proposes a methodology to create a fully forged, recrystallized structure by integrating the hybrid laser deposition system and FSP. Various FSP parameters investigated in attaining the same have been discussed. The effective nugget region which was left unaffected due to the subsequent single, double and triple layer laser deposition has also been presented"--Abstract, leaf iv.

Download or read book Fabrication and Characterization of Advanced Materials Using Laser Metal Deposition from Elemental Powder Mixture written by Xueyang Chen and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the past decades of years, a great deal of money has been spent to machine large and complex parts from high-performance metals (i.e., titanium components for aerospace applications), so users attempt to circumvent the high cost of materials. Laser metal deposition (LMD) is an additive manufacturing technique capable of fabricating complicated structures with superior properties. This dissertation aims to improve the applications of LMD technique for manufacturing metallic components by using various elemental powder mixture according to the following three categories of research topics. The first research topic is to investigate and develop a cost-effective possibility by using elemental powder mixture for metallic components fabrication. Based on the studies of fabricating thin-wall Ti-6Al-4V using elemental powder mixture, comparative close particle number for Ti, Al and V powder could easily get industry qualified Ti-6Al-4V components. The particle number for each element in powder blends has been proved to be a key factor for composition control in the final deposit part. The second research topic focuses on the application improvements of elemental powder manufacturing. By fabricating Al[sub x]CoFeNiCu[sub 1−x] (x = 0.25, 0.5, 0.75) high entropy alloys from elemental powder based feedstocks, it enhances the usage of elemental powder to fabricate novel materials with complex compositions. The third research topic extends the applications of using elemental powder mixture to the broader area. A functionally gradient material (FGM) path is developed to successfully join titanium alloy with [gamma]-TiAl. This dissertation leads to new knowledge for the effective fabrication of unique and complex metallic components. Moreover, the research results of the dissertation could benefit a wide range of industries"--Abstract, page iv.

Download or read book Additive Manufacturing Laser Deposition of Ti 6Al 4V for Aerospace Repair Application written by Nanda Kumar Dey and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Parts or products machined from high performance metals are very expensive, partly due to the processing complexities during manufacturing. Therefore, many high performance metal parts users, such as the aerospace industry, mold/die casting industry, heavy machinery consumers etc., extend the service of these damaged parts by employing repair or remanufacturing technology. The research objective is to use laser deposition and machining processes to repair titanium parts. This thesis discusses a new way of approach for developing a repair process for Ti-6Al-4V for the aerospace industry using Laser Metal Deposition (LMD). The repairs were conducted in a multi-axis hybrid manufacturing systems in which the laser deposition and the machining processes are integrated. The study broadly included preparing the defects, laser deposition, machining, sample preparations and mechanical tests. Comparative study of mechanical properties (UTS, YS, percentage elongation) of the repaired samples to the ideal conditions was undertaken. The research throws up interesting facts where the data from the test sample shows enhancement of properties of the repaired part."--Abstract, page iv.

Book Additive Manufacturing of Titanium Alloys

Download or read book Titanium written by Gerd Lütjering and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors were motivated to prepare this book by the absence of any recent comprehensive book on titanium. The intent of this book is to provide a modern compendium that addresses both the phyical metallurgy as well as the applications of titanium. Until now the only book on this subject is that by Zwicker which was written in German and published almost 30 years ago. Chapter 1 is an introduction to the subject including some historical aspects of titanium. Chapter 2 is a s- mary of the Fundamental Aspects of Titanium, Chapter 3 is a summary of the Technological Aspects of Titanium and Chapters 4 through 9 address the specifics of the various classes of titanium ranging from CP Titanium to Titanium Matrix Composites. Finally, Chapter 10 covers “special” properties and applications of titanium. Our intent has been to address the subject conceptually rather than provide quantities of data of the sort that would be found in a Handbook. It is our intent that this book is useful for materials scientists and engineers interested in using titanium and for students either as a sourcebook or as a textbook. We have - tempted to include a representative set of references which provide additional detail for readers interested in specific aspects of titanium. Because of the re- tively recent growth of the technological importance of titanium, there is a vo- minous literature on titanium. While our references span this literature it has proven impossible to mention every contribution.

Book Microscale Surface Tension and Its Applications

Download or read book Microscale Surface Tension and Its Applications written by Pierre Lambert and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on advances in miniaturization and soft matter, surface tension effects are a major key to the development of soft/fluidic microrobotics. Benefiting from scaling laws, surface tension and capillary effects can enable sensing, actuation, adhesion, confinement, compliance, and other structural and functional properties necessary in micro- and nanosystems. Various applications are under development: microfluidic and lab-on-chip devices, soft gripping and manipulation of particles, colloidal and interfacial assemblies, fluidic/droplet mechatronics. The capillary action is ubiquitous in drops, bubbles and menisci, opening a broad spectrum of technological solutions and scientific investigations. Identified grand challenges to the establishment of fluidic microrobotics include mastering the dynamics of capillary effects, controlling the hysteresis arising from wetting and evaporation, improving the dispensing and handling of tiny droplets, and developing a mechatronic approach for the control and programming of surface tension effects. In this Special Issue of Micromachines, we invite contributions covering all aspects of microscale engineering relying on surface tension. Particularly, we welcome contributions on fundamentals or applications related to: Drop-botics: fluidic or surface tension-based micro/nanorobotics: capillary manipulation, gripping, and actuation, sensing, folding, propulsion and bio-inspired solutions; Control of surface tension effects: surface tension gradients, active surfactants, thermocapillarity, electrowetting, elastocapillarity; Handling of droplets, bubbles and liquid bridges: dispensing, confinement, displacement, stretching, rupture, evaporation; Capillary forces: modelling, measurement, simulation; Interfacial engineering: smart liquids, surface treatments; Interfacial fluidic and capillary assembly of colloids and devices; Biological applications of surface tension, including lab-on-chip and organ-on-chip systems.
