Three-dimensional printing elements for conformal cooling by Loh, Nicholas Weng Siong

“…This study shall also be discussing the additive manufacturing techniques used in producing the test specimen, such as Selective Laser Melting and Direct Metal Laser Sintering. A comparison of the simulation results of all lattice-integrated channel designs showed the Face Centered Cubic lattice-integrated Tapered conformal channel design having the highest potential by achieving a balance of low temperature non-uniformity and pressure drop across the conformal cooling channel, with the circular hollow conformal channel design achieving the opposite. …”

Additive manufacturing of bone-like composites by Dee, Pei Fang

“…During the material extrusion process, the CaP microplatelets are aligned depending on the shear forces experienced in the nozzle during 3D printing. After sintering CaP ceramic printed by DIW, the porous material could be impregnated with a hydrated matrix to aim for a bioceramic/hydrogel composite. …”

Fabrication of alternating layers of multimaterial ceramics with bioinspired microstructures by Chang, Gwendolyn Yu Qian

“…Thereafter, the magnetically assisted slip casting (MASC) process is applied using a rotating magnetic field to orient the magnetized alumina microplatelets in the in-plane direction with the nanoparticles of alumina and zirconia trapped in between in a layer-by-layer fashion until complete drying to control the microstructure precisely. Next, sintering is conducted to densify the samples using a templated grain growth (TGG) process, where the nanoparticles of alumina are consumed into the platelets to promote anisotropic grain growth while the zirconia particles remain in between the grown microplatelets. …”

Magnetic materials of rare-earth permanent magnets by Aw, Charlotte Bixi

“…The two principal magnets types may be made with Sm and Nd: sintered magnets (dense and oriented) which show the highest performance and bonded magnets (magnetic powders injected into a non-magnetic matrix, often a polymer) which are simpler and cheaper to manufacture, but exhibit poorer magnetic performance than the former. …”

Ni doped CoSb3 nanostructured thermoelectric materials by Zhang, Lei

“…At X= 1.25 in NixCo(8-x)Sb24, the highest ZT of 0.32 at temperature 730 K were observed which is big improvement compared with pure CoSb3 materials obtained by Spark plasma sintering, which is 0.095 at 673 K. However higher ZT values have been reported by newly developed methods such as low dimensional structuring of thermoelectric materials, ZT value over 1 were reported for Ni doped CoSb3, which is based on the technique of superlattice thin film.…”
