Raising Two More Fundamental Questions Regarding the Classical Views on the Rheology of Polymer Melts by Ibar, Jean Pierre

“…The current paradigm of polymer flow assumes that (i) the effect of the molecular weight of the macromolecules, M, and of the temperature, T, on the expression of the viscosity of polymer melts separate; (ii) the molecular weight for entanglement, Mc, is independent of T; and (iii) the determination of Mc by the break in the log viscosity curve against log M unequivocally differentiates un-entangled melts from entangled melts. …”

Fabrication of smart structures through selective laser melting (3D printing) (II) by Ong, Cindy

“…The functional properties of shape memory alloys (SMAs) are highly dependent on the alloy’s microstructure, and hence any factor that affects its microstructure, such as its composition, must be carefully controlled to ensure optimal functionality of the alloy. Selective Laser Melting (SLM) of Nickel-Titanium SMAs uses high energy lasers to melt the powder, which in turn alters the microstructure of the alloy. …”

Fabrication of minichannel fractal flow channels by selective laser melting for two-phase flow cooling applications by Leong, Kai Choong, See, Yao Song

“…Fractal design flow channels provide better flow stability and heat dissipation capacity than conventional parallel channel flow channels under flow boiling conditions although they are difficult to fabricate. The Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technique is selected to explore the feasibility of fabricating minichannel fractal flow channels with four various branch levels, denoted as c = 1, 2, 3, 4, using AlSi10Mg, an aluminium alloy metallic powder. …”
