Methods of Extrusion on Demand for High Solids Loading Ceramic Paste in Freeform Extrusion Fabrication

Fabrication of highly dense parts with complex geometry by paste-extrusion-based solid freeform fabrication processes requires a precise control of the extrusion flow rate to dispense material on demand, which is often referred as Extrusion-On-Demand (EOD). The extrusion process for aqueous ceramic pastes is complex and difficult to control due to their non-Newtonian behavior, compressibility a...

A Marco-homogenous and Micro-Heterogeneous Model for Self-propagating High Temperature Synthesis (SHS)

Recently research shows that heterogeneous model is needed to explain some complex combustion behaviors in SHS. However, more heterogeneous details be considered more difficulties will be faced. A micro-heterogeneous & macro-homogeneous model is proposed in this paper based on some previous works for this problem. Combustion compact is divided into lots of little units, which are composed of a ...

Synthesis of Al2O3-ZrO2 Nanocomposite by Mechanical Activated Self-propagating High Temperature Synthesis(MASHS) and Ignited via Laser

By consideration of unique properties of composite Al2O3-ZrO2 such as high toughness, high wear resistant and relative low thermal expansion, in this study, nanocomposite of Al2O3-ZrO2 was produced by Mechanical activated Self propagating High-temperature Synthesis (MASHS) using laser beam for ignition. First Al and ZrO2 powders were mixed in the mole ratio of 1:1 and milled for 1, 3 and 6 hour...

Modelling of friction for high temperature extrusion of aluminium alloys

During high-temperature ball-on-disc tests of aluminium against steel, hot aluminium deformsand wear track evolves. The individual contributions of ploughing and shearing to theapparent friction and the contact pressure are unknown. The aim of this chapter was todevelop a model capable of determining these parameters. It was found that during high-temperature ball-on-disc tests,...
