Alternate slicing and deposition strategies for Fused Deposition Modelling
(Auckland University of Technology, 2014)Fused deposition modelling is one of the most widely used rapid prototyping processes, considering the relative simplicity, availability, and ease of use. The proliferation of numerous systems at all possible price ranges ... -
Evaluation of Alternative Material Composites for Additive Manufacturing
(Auckland University of Technology, 2020)From mere prototyping solutions to the full-fledged additive manufacturing systems, the technology platform, commonly known as 3D printing has grown in leaps and bounds. Despite the astounding features, the enormous growth, ... -
Evaluation of the Application of Additive Manufacturing in the Aircraft Industry
(Auckland University of Technology, 2021)With stringent regulatory constraints, certification standards, and complex multi-tier suppliers involving several players, the aviation industry often faces with the most complex supply chain scenarios. Further, considering ... -
Finite Element Evaluation and Experimental Validation by Selective Laser Melting of Metallic Auxetic Structures for Enhanced Performance Attributes
(Auckland University of Technology, 2019)Auxetic metamaterials exhibit certain extraordinary properties such as negative Poisson’s ratios, which means lateral compression and expansion under compressive and tensile loads respectively. This abnormal deformation ... -
Mechanisms and Mechanics of Bonding in 3D Printed Moulds and Critical Roles of Specific Constituents
(Auckland University of Technology, 2015)Casting process is as old as the Pyramids, but still plays a significant role in the modern day manufacturing, but undue product lead times and initial expenses are often the bottlenecks. Some or all of these issues could ... -
Multi-Material and Multi-Structural Optimisation for Generative Design of Controlled Property Domains
(Auckland University of Technology, 2022)Most naturally evolved structures exhibit the highest level of optimisation in terms of the material properties through carefully selected and adopted compositional and structural variations resulting in the functional ... -
Selective Laser Melting of Duplex Stainless Steel
(Auckland University of Technology, 2018)Duplex stainless steels are a special class of alloys characterised by the equal amounts of austenite and ferrite in the microstructures, achieved through a balanced composition of the alloying elements. The dual phase ... -
Selective Laser Sintering of PMMA and PMMA Plus β-tricalcium Phosphate Polymer Composites
(Auckland University of Technology, 2017)Certain material systems are currently playing significant roles in the medical application areas. Classified as bio-polymers, polyethylene (PE), polyamide (PA), Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), poly (lactic acid) (PLA), poly ...
