Broaching Digital Twin to Predict Forces, Local Overloads, and Surface Topography Irregularities
(MDPI, 2024)Broaching is a key manufacturing process that directly influences the surface integrity of critical components, impacting their functional performance in sectors such as aeronautics, automotive, and energy. Such components ... -
Crystal-plasticity-finite-element modeling of the dynamic response of a directionally solidified nickel-based superalloy
(2020)The flow stress behaviour of a directionally solidified nickel-base superalloy,MAR-M247, is presented through the combination of experiments and crystal-plasticity simulations.The experimental campaign ... -
Designing for Shape Memory in Additive Manufacturing of Cu–Al–Ni Shape Memory Alloy Processed by Laser Powder Bed Fusion
(MDPI, 2022)Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are functional materials that are being applied in practically all industries, from aerospace to biomedical sectors, and at present the scientific and technologic communities are looking to gain ... -
Electromechanical Properties of PVDF-Based Polymers Reinforced with Nanocarbonaceous Fillers for Pressure Sensing Applications
(MDPI AG, 2019)Polymer-based composites reinforced with nanocarbonaceous materials can be tailored for functional applications. Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNT) or graphene with different filler ... -
Friction Modelling for Tube Hydroforming Processes : A Numerical and Experimental Study with Different Viscosity Lubricants
(MDPI, 2022)The final quality of sheet and tube metal–formed components strongly depends on the tribology and friction conditions between the tools and the material to be formed. Furthermore, it has been recently demonstrated that ... -
Integration of Hot Isostatic Pressing and Heat Treatment for Advanced Modified gamma-TiAl TNM Alloys
(MDPI, 2022)The conventional processing route of TNM (Ti-Nb-Mo) alloys combines casting and Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) followed by forging and multiple heat treatments to establish optimum properties. This is a time-consuming and ... -
Preliminary Study on the Capability of the Novel Near Solidus Forming (NSF) Technology to Manufacture Complex Steel Components
(MDPI AG, 2020)The benefits of the novel Near Solidus Forming (NSF) process has shown previously in its ability to produce steel components with comparable as-forged mechanical properties but with a cost reduction of 10–15%. This study ... -
Substitutive Press-Bolster and Press-Ram Models for the Virtual Estimation of Stamping-Tool Cambering
(MDPI, 2021)Today’s stamping simulations are realized by ignoring the elastic deformation of the press and tooling system through the assumption of a rigid behavior and a perfect press stroke. However, in reality, the press and tool ... -
X-ray Thermo-Diffraction Study of the Aluminum-Based Multicomponent Alloy Al58Zn28Si8Mg6
(MDPI, 2022)Newly designed multicomponent light alloys are giving rise to non-conventional microstructures that need to be thoroughly studied before determining their potential applications. In this study, the novel Al58Zn28Si8Mg6 ...
