3d-printing of Energy Devices Using Particle-based Inks

Introduction and Summary Over the past year, ISEN funding has been utilized to make significant research progress towards the fabrication of a fully 3D-printed iron/solid oxide fuel cell (Metallic/multi-ceramic) batterygenerator system (Figure 1). Monies have gone towards the partial funding of one grad student/postdoc, Adam Jakus, in Ramille Shah’s Tissue Engineering and Additive Manufacturing...

Shear Bond Strength of Metallic and Ceramic Brackets Bonded with Two-step and Three-step Light Cure Adhesives

  Background and purpose: The bonding process is highly important in orthodontic treatment for its fast speed. The purpose of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of ceramic and metallic brackets between three stage (transbondTM XT) and two stage (GC ortho connectTM) light cure composites. Materials and methods: In this experimental study, 80 maxillary and mandibular first and sec...

INVESTIGATION OF SUPERCONDUCTIVITY AND MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF BI2SR2CA2CU3O10+Θ CERAMIC SUPERCONDUCTOR WITH ADDITION OF SILICON CARBIDE NANOPARTICLES

In this research, the effect of addition of silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticles on the improvement of the structural, superconductivity, magnetic, and flux pinning properties of high-temperature superconductor Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+θ (Bi-2223) was investigated. The Bi-2223 ceramic superconductor was prepared using the sol-gel method, and silicon carbide nanoparticles were modified by Azobisiso...

Data Generation for the Numerical Simulation of Powder

Numerical simulation of industrial plastic deformation processes needs of a precise characterization of the mechanical material properties included in the particular elastoplastic model. The plasticity model of bulk metallic materials is well known and the tests used for characterization are simple and well typified. The situation is quite different when the compaction of metal and ceramic powd...
