Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) is one of the earliest, most versatile, and popular AM processes, being well-suited for a great variety of materials. As in many other manufacturing processes, porosity is a phenomenon inevitably present in parts made by PBF. The quantity, shape, and distribution of pores, and the propensity to their formation depend strongly upon the type of process and on the processing conditions used to produce Read More

Objective: This article highlights the applications of nanotechnology in the detection of explosives. Evidence Acquisition: The increasing rise in terrorist acts throughout the globe has brought attention to the significance of locating hidden bombs and motivated new propelled breakthroughs to ensure public safety. Recognizing explosives and closely related-threatening combinations has already risen to the top of the priority li Read More

Biomaterials, a fascinating and highly interdisciplinary field, have become integral to improving modern man's conditions and quality of life. It is done by many health-related problems arising from many sources. The first batch of biomaterials was produced as implants and medical equipment in the 1960s and 1970s. Biomaterials are primarily used in medicine and may be directly or indirectly exposed to biological s Read More

In cement-based composites, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nano fibres (CNFs) can act as crack bridging, delaying the development of nano fractures into microcracks. Recent research on the use of CNTs and CNFs in cement-based composites was reviewed in this paper. Earlier studies have demonstrated that cement-based composites reinforced with CNTs/CNFs have lower porosities and superior mechanical properties Read More

Background: The researchers are in the situation to satisfy the demand for engineering materials by developing novel eco-friendly materials. The natural fiber composites are the substitutes for the synthetic material. Introduction: The mechanical properties of curaua fiber-reinforced polyester (CFRP) composites were investigated, as well as the effects of curaua fibre infusion with Babool Wood particles (BWP). Methods: The co Read More

Background: Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures can deteriorate over time due to aging, poor construction design, natural disasters, etc. In recent years, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials are becoming a preferred choice for concrete construction repair due to their durability, high strength, and corrosion resistance. This study aimed to study and analyze the properties of the constituent materials to i Read More

Introductions: TiO2 nanoparticles ceramic (NPs) codoped with Bi and W ions have been synthesized by a hydrothermal technique. A portion of the prepared ceramic was posthydrogenated. Ceramic NPs were characterized by traditional methods. Crystalline structures and optical properties were investigated using X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and diffuse reflection spectroscopy, respectively. Methods: The present work has focuse Read More
