A Fully 3D Printed Waveguide and its Application as Microfluidically Controlled Waveguide Switch
DownloadFall 2016
Hollow rectangular waveguides are employed extensively in microwave and millimeter wave devices owing to their relatively high power handling capabilities and low losses, particularly at higher frequencies, compared to transmission lines. However, the fabrication of such metal waveguides suffer...

A study on the effect of print parameters on mechanical properties of parts manufactured using additive manufacturing
DownloadFall 2017
This thesis presents an investigation on material-process interaction of vat-photopolymerization processes. The effect of different printing factors on tensile properties is studied. Two vat-photopolymerization processes are considered: Digital Light Processing (DLP) and Stereolithography (SLA)....

Accurate modeling of production performance and recovery processes in petroleum and gas reservoirs is heavily influenced by the heterogeneity of natural geomaterials. Reliability of these studies regarding accurate estimation of the hydraulic properties of the reservoir rock stratum constitutes a...

Development of a Multi-material Extruder System to 3D Print Hard Thermoplastics, Soft Elastomers and Liquid Metals
DownloadSpring 2019
Functional sensors often consist of rigid parts, soft rubber-like parts, and mechanically tunable electronic components. As part of a larger project to 3D print tunable antennas, it was tasked to develop a printer that could directly produce 3D stretchable electronics with soft and hard...

Additive Manufacturing and Other Techniques for Fabrication of Foams and Electrically Conductive Polymer Composites
DownloadSpring 2023
In this thesis, two aspects of advanced uses for additive manufacturing and microfabrication are investigated: stretchable electronics and polymer foams. These topics were initially part of an extended project effort to develop new capabilities in deformable, high-frequency antennas and the...
