Laser Dissimilar Joining of Al7075T6 with Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polyamide Composite
(MDPI, 2020-01-22)
Dissimilar joining between metal and composite sheets is usually carried out by mechanical or adhesive joining. Laser dissimilar joining between metal and composite sheets could be an alternative to these methods, as it ...
Thermomechanical analysis of additively manufactured bimetallic tools for hot stamping
(Elsevier, 2020-09)
A comparison between a conventional AISI H13 hot stamping tool and a bimetallic tool consisting of an AISI 1045 core and a laser-deposited AISI H13 coating is performed. In order to analyze the performance of bimetallic ...
Study of the Environmental Implications of Using Metal Powder in Additive Manufacturing and Its Handling
(MDPI, 2020-02-17)

A RE Methodology to achieve Accurate Polygon Models and NURBS Surfaces by Applying Different Data Processing Techniques
(MDPI, 2020-11-12)
The scope of this work is to present a reverse engineering (RE) methodology to achieve accurate polygon models for 3D printing or additive manufacturing (AM) applications, as well as NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) ...
Functionally Graded AISI 316L and AISI H13 Manufactured by L-DED for Die and Mould Applications
(MDPI, 2021-01-15)
Tooling in the die and mould industry is subjected to high-wear and high-temperature environments, which often leads to the premature failure of this high-added-value tooling. When severe damage occurs, an alternative to ...
Influence of process parameters on the particle-matrix interaction of WC-Co metal matrix composites produced by laser-directed energy deposition
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
The prediction of the in-service behaviour of metal-matrix composites produced by laser-directed energy deposition is a fundamental challenge in additive manufacturing. The interaction between the reinforce-ment phase and ...
Influence of the Laser Deposited 316L Single Layers on Corrosion in Physiological Media
