Knowledge Base Development for Mechanical Properties and Energy Consumption of Iron-PLA Composite Filaments in Additive Manufacturing
(2022)Additive Manufacturing (AM) is one of the latest manufacturing processes where instead of cutting away from material or casting an object, as in Traditional Manufacturing (TM), one constructively adds material to create ... -
Vol. 6, Iss. 1: Foundations of Legitimacy (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023) -
It May Be Different than You Think (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)In this issue’s introductory essay, the chair of our editorial board, Frank Gavin, discusses the need to shake up the status quo and the importance of intellectually playing the field. -
Memories of Vietnam: Refugees, Remembrance, and Resettlement (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)In this roundtable feature, David Kieran reviews Amanda Demmer’s book, “After Saigon’s Fall,” applauding it for tackling important questions about the interaction between refugees, resettlement policy, memory, and ... -
The Paradox of Europe's Defense Moment (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)The war in Ukraine has been a wakeup call for European countries, alerting them to the reality that defense matters. But do some recent promising steps in the right direction actually signal a revival of the European Union’s ... -
The Organizational Determinants of Military Doctrine: A History of Army Information Operations (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)For the past four decades, the U.S. Army has made repeated attempts to create an enduring doctrinal framework that describes the role of information in conflict, yet these attempts have been largely unsuccessful. What ... -
China's Brute Force Economics: Waking Up from the Dream of a Level Playing Field (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)Liza Tobin argues that the time has come for the United States and its allies to abandon the notion that competing on a level playing field with China’s state-led economy is possible and confront the reality of what she ... -
The Moral Legitimacy of Drone Strikes: How the Public Forms its Judgments (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)Scholars often relate how the public views drone strikes to one of three moral norms: soldiers’ battlefield courage, the protection of soldiers, or preventing civilian casualties. But what explains variation in the public’s ... -
Stabilization Lessons from the British Empire (Winter 2022/2023)
(Texas National Security Review, 2023)Failures of costly state-building missions in places like South Vietnam and Afghanistan have created a widespread belief that foreign interventions cannot stabilize fragile states. However, a review of the operational ... -
An Experimental Study of Cellular Mechanical Interface in a Bi-Material Structure Fabricated by Material Extrusion Additive Manufacturing
(2022)This work is a continuation of the preliminary project with the investigation of the characteristics of the cellular structure-based mechanical interlocking interface designs for bi-material structures fabricated by ... -
Using Mean Curvature of Implicitly Defined Minimal Surface Approximations to Generate New Unit Cells for Lattice Design
(2022)Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (TPMS) are smoothly varying surfaces that exhibit zero mean curvature at all points on the surface. TPMS can be modeled with high accuracy us- ing discrete differential geometry techniques. ... -
Utilizing Lattice Infill Structures to Optimize Weight with Structural Integrity Investigation for Commonly Used 3D Printing Technologies
(2022)Additive Manufacturing (AM) is utilized in various applications and fields. This research study investigates the use of lattice infill structures to reduce weight in two commonly used AM methods; Stereolithography (SLA) ... -
A Data-Driven Approach for Multi-Lattice Transitions
(2022)Additive manufacturing is advantageous for producing lightweight components while maintaining function and form. This ability has been bolstered by the introduction of unit lattice cells and the gradation of those ... -
Application of Systems Engineering to Lattice Structure Design: A Framework for Requirements Flow Down
(2022)In the field of additive manufacturing, highly ordered cellular structures with repeating patterns in space, known as lattice structures or simply “lattices”, have been shown to sig- nificantly improve the performance ... -
Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Lattice Structures with Different Heterogeneities
(2022)Lattice structures with optimized material distributions can achieve unique mechanical properties such as high stiffness-to-weight ratio. However, the numerical analysis of the mechanical properties of heterogeneous ... -
A Limited -Scale Expeirmental Invstigation of the Unit Cell Topology Effects on Interpenetrating Cellular Structures
(2022)The interpenetrating cellular structure is a novel recent design concept that has been subjected to some preliminary research efforts in recent years. As there still exist relatively limited understanding of such design ... -
The effects of powder feedstock and process parameters on the material characteristics of Ti6Al4V thin strut features fabricated by laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing
