In-Situ Thermal Image Correlation with Mechanical Properties of Nylon-12 in SLS
(University of Texas at Austin, 2015)
Selective laser sintering (SLS) of Nylon is a significant portion of the additive
manufacturing market for structurally sensitive applications. Current methods of
acceptance for such parts are based on the inclusion of ...
Mass Finishing of Laser Sintered Parts
(University of Texas at Austin, 2015)
Selective laser sintered (SLS) part surfaces are quite rough textured by the
layered structure and adherence of incomplete molten powder particles. Different
post-treatments can help to smooth these surfaces. In this ...
Selective Laser Sintering of Diamond Lattice Structures: Experimental Results and FEA Model Comparison
(University of Texas at Austin, 2015)
Nature utilizes multiple materials with varying properties to create high performance,
integrated systems. In contrast, most additive manufacturing processes are limited to a small set of
compatible materials to fabricate ...
Improving Energy Efficiency of Car Climate Control with SLS
(University of Texas at Austin, 2015)
In Europe, passenger cars are responsible for 12% of CO2 emissions. The European
Commission established new regulations to drastically reduce the emissions from 130g to 95g
CO2 per km between 2015 and 2021. While the ...
Parameter Optimization for Preparing Carbon Fiber/Epoxy Composites by Selective Laser Sintering
(University of Texas at Austin, 2015)
Carbon fiber (CF) reinforced thermosetting resin composites offer a wide range
of high performance features including excellent strength, modulus and thermal
resistance and light weight. Consequently, they are increasingly ...
Thermal Aspects of Selective Laser Sintering of PMMA+β-TCP Composites
(University of Texas at Austin, 2015)
Biocompatible and osteoconductive characteristics expected of materials used for bone grafting
applications identified Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and β-Tri Calcium Phosphate (βTCP) combinations to be potential biopolymer ...
