Electrical Energy Demand Modeling of 3D Printing Technology for Sustainable Manufacture
The advent of 3D printers has been embraced globally within few years of its emergence. The surge in the acceptability of rapid manufacturing RM technology can be attributed to the depletion and cost of natural resources, waste reduction and sustainability criterion of manufactured parts. This rapidly evolving 3D printing technologies is predicted to grow exponentially especially for the manufa...
متن کاملPiezoelectric fibers for sensing and actuation at ultrasonic and audio frequencies
Following the first demonstration of fiber-based piezoelectric element that can be interfaced with external circuits in both transmitter and receiver configurations, we continue to explore the refinement of the fabrication process on novel and high performance structures: fibers with circular and rectangular cross sections have been fabricated to control the acoustic wavefronts. Fibers containi...
متن کاملPiezoelectric ultrasonic micromotors
This thesis describes development of a new actuator technology for integrated machines of the future: piezoelectric ultrasonic micromotors. Ultrasonic motors o er the advantages of low speed, high torque operation without the need for gears. They can be made compact and lightweight and provide a holding torque in the absence of applied power due to the traveling wave frictional coupling mechani...
متن کاملMicro Piezoelectric Ultrasonic Motors
This paper reviews recent developments of micro ultrasonic rotary motors using piezoelectric resonant vibrations. Following the historical background, four ultrasonic motors recently developed at Penn State University are introduced; windmill, PZT tube, metal tube, and shear-type motors. Driving principles and motor characteristics are described in comparison with the conventional ultrasonic mo...
متن کامل3D Printing-Based Integrated Water Quality Sensing System
The online and accurate monitoring of drinking water supply networks is critically in demand to rapidly detect the accidental or deliberate contamination of drinking water. At present, miniaturized water quality monitoring sensors developed in the laboratories are usually tested under ambient pressure and steady-state flow conditions; however, in Water Distribution Systems (WDS), both the press...
