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)....

Automated semantic segmentation of NiCrBSi-WC optical microscopy images using convolutional neural networks
Download2022-01-01
Rose, D., Forth, J., Henein, H., Wolfe, T., Qureshi, A.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were used for the semantic segmentation of angular monocrystalline WC from NiCrBSi-WC optical microscopy images. This deep learning approach was able to emulate the laborious task of manual segmentation effectively, with a mean intersection over union (IOU)...

Design and Development of a Novel Tensile Testing Apparatus for Time-Resolved Betatron X-Ray Tomographic Imaging
Download2022-06-01
Arce-Borkent, Alvaro R., Richards, Tait, Senthilkumaran, Vigneshvar, Beier, Nicholas F., Zhou, Le, Moore, John A., Knudsen, K. Steven, Hussein, Amina E., Lipsett, Michael G.
High-resolution imaging of deformation processes in materials under load requires controllable and stable loading conditions and the ability to vary sample orientation relative to the imaging source. A novel tensile testing apparatus has been designed, developed, and characterized for...

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...
