...Martin Yi Zhang; Gary J. Cheng A novel methodology of laser coating of mixture of bioceramic and titanium nanoparticles onto metal implants is developed in this work. Feasibility of this approach is demonstrated via both multiphysics simulation and experiments. Treating incident laser...

... have been carried out to study the effects of nanoparticles integrated structures during the laser shock peening of aluminum alloys. The LSP experiment of aluminum samples with different particle densities was carried out. The effect of nanoparticle on shock wave propagation, plastic deformation...

...Victoria L. Calero-DdelC; Ana M. Gonzalez; Carlos Rinaldi A statistical design of experiments was used to study the effect of reaction temperature and time on the synthesis of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles by the thermodecomposition method. A 2 4 – 2 factorial experimental design with two central...

... for automated manipulation of nanoparticles to form designed patterns. The automated manipulation is based on a novel method, successive directional push. This method keeps pushing along a fixed forward direction until the particle reaches the baseline of the target position, and it then repeats the pushing...

... with an interlayer of nickel nanoparticles and compared with samples joined by conventional diffusion bonding and electroplated nickel-phosphorous diffusion brazing. Comparison is made with regard to microstructural evolution, diffusional profile, and bond strength. All bonding was carried out in a uni-axial vacuum...

... results show that the ultrasonic cavitation based dispersion of nanoparticles in molten aluminum alloy is effective. The uniform nanoparticle dispersion in the Al alloy matrix resulted in significantly improved mechanical properties. To enhance the nanomanufacturing efficiency, various nanoparticle...

... in reducing the size of ceramic micro- and/or nanoparticles to a desirable range to be used as a constituent for micro- and nanostructured materials. In this study, the time change of particle size of titanium dioxide TiO 2 micro- and nanoparticles in the stirred ball mill grinding process is characterized...

...Rajeev Nair,; Wenping Jiang, and; Pal Molian This paper reports a novel solid freeform fabrication process, Nanoparticle Additive Manufacturing (NAM), for dispersing nanoparticles into molten matrix for improved mechanical properties. In addition, it also presents the characterization...
