Abstract Nanostructured titanium plays an important role in biomedical applications, especially dentistry, as the nanostructured surface promotes bone cell growth and simultaneously prevents bacterial colonization. microstructures can be obtained through Severe Plastic Deformation processes. In this paper, thermomechanical processing via Equal Channel Angular Swaging for continuous production o...

For their advantageous combinations of properties, metallic clad composites are popular in numerous commercial and industrial branches. This study deals with measurement optimization electric properties innovative self-designed Al-Cu laminated composites, fabricated by the cold rotary swaging method, via thermomechanical processing. The bimetallic laminates room-temperature swaged down to diame...

A fiber optic sensor developed for the measurement of tendon forces was designed, numerically modeled, fabricated, and experimentally evaluated. The sensor incorporated fiber Bragg gratings and micro-fabricated stainless steel housings. A fiber Bragg grating is an optical device that is spectrally sensitive to axial strain. Stainless steel housings were designed to convert radial forces applied...
