Strengthening mechanism of additively manufactured cold spray Al deposits under low deposition efficiency
(2021)In this study, a novel strategy to manufacture high strength cold-sprayed Al coating by using powder with wide size distribution is proposed. The microstructure and mechanical properties of deposited ... -
Stresses in peripheral arteries following stent placement: a finite element analysis
(2009)The success of stents to restore blood flow in atherosclerotic peripheral arteries is low relative to coronary arteries. It has been shown that joint flexion induces a mechanical environment that makes stent placement in ... -
A Structural Model of Passive Skeletal Muscle shows Two Reinforcement Processes in Resisting Deformation
(2013)Passive skeletal muscle derives its structural response from the combination of the titin filaments in the muscle fibres, the collagen fibres in the connective tissue and incompressibility due to the high fluid content. ... -
Study of pulsating flow in close-coupled catalyst manifolds using phase-locked hot-wire anemometry
(2004)Phase-locked sampling has been applied to hot-wire anemometry in order to investigate the pulsating flow inside two types of automotive exhaust manifolds fitted with a close-coupled catalyst. An isothermal dynamic flow ... -
A STUDY ON INTERNAL DEFECTS IN FRICTION STIR WELDING OF ALUMINIUM ALLOYS
(2014)Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state welding process that offers advantages over the conventional techniques. As it is a solid state process, re - solidification defects like porosity ... -
Substrate stiffness and oxygen as regulators of stem cell differentiation during skeletal tissue regeneration: a mechanobiological model.
(2012)Extrinsic mechanical signals have been implicated as key regulators of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation. It has been possible to test different hypotheses for mechano-regulated MSC differentiation by attempting ... -
Substrate stiffness and oxygen availability as regulators of mesenchymal stem cell differentiation within a mechanically loaded bone chamber.
(2014)M echanical stimuli such as tissue deformation and fluid flow are often implicated as regulators of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation during regenerative events in vivo . However , in vitro studies ... -
Supersonic Laser Deposition of Tungsten
(2014)Near fully dense tungsten coatings onto molybdenum substrates have been demonstrated using the Supersonic Laser Deposition (SLD) process. This is a characteristic that is not readily achievable with ... -
Surface Finish in Micro-drilling of PTFE
(2008)Surface finish of engineering components pl ays a key role in their functionality, particularly where the size of the geometric feat ures of the component decreases. This paper reports on such an application – the ... -
Surface Free Energy Dominates the Biological Interactions of Postprocessed Additively Manufactured Ti-6Al-4V
(2022)Additive manufacturing (AM) has emerged as a disruptive technique within healthcare because of its ability to provide personalized devices; however, printed metal parts still present surface and microstructural defects, ... -
Synergistic Effects of Acidic pH and Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α for Cell-Based Intervertebral Disc Regeneration
(2020)The intervertebral disc (IVD) relies mainly on diffusion through the cartilaginous endplates (CEP) to regulate the nutrient and metabolites exchange, thus creating a challenging microenvironment. Degeneration of the IVD ... -
Synthesis and characterization of biomimetic hydroxyapatite/sepiolite nanocomposites
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011)Natural fibrous sepiolite with a high surface area, negative surface charge and porous structure is promising for hydroxyapatite (HAp) mineralization since the clay is naturally abundant and biocompatible. In this paper, ... -
Systematic research on the formation of heterogenous microstructure in FeCoNiCrMn high entropy cold spray
(2022)High entropy alloys, as a novel alloy system, demonstrated excellent mechanical performance. However, despite its excellent mechanical performance, the strength-ductility trade-off effect still limit its performance. In ... -
A Systematic Review of the Educational Effectiveness of Simulation Used in Open Surgery
(2019)The role of simulation to teach and access open surgical skills has become more prevalent in recent years. This systematic review synthesizes the totality of evidence with respect to the educational effectiveness of ... -
Teaching Innovation in Interdisciplinary Environments: Toward a Design Thinking Syllabus
(2018)An increasing number of universities offer user-centric innovation courses based on the principles of design thinking. Lecturers combine a plethora of design thinking elements in design thinking course syllabi and thereby ... -
Technique to Analyze Characteristics of Turbomachinery Broadband Noise Sources (AIAA 2010-3979)
(2010)In this paper an experimental technique for the decomposition of broadband ducted sound fields into their mode constituents is applied to two laboratory scale experimental setups. The broadband mode analysis technique ... -
TEENI-Turboshaft Engine Exhaust Noise Identification
(2010)The TEENI project is an FP7 level 1 (Theme 7 ? Transport) 1st Call EU-funded project. It focuses on Helicopter Engine Exhaust Broadband Noise, and tries to identify the origin of this noise from external measurements only. ...
