    In laser peening process, several laser pulses are irradiated to cover a certain surface area. It has been reported that when coverage ratio of the beam spots is increased, compressive stress near the surface becomes anisotropic, that is, the two principal stresses in the treated area reach differ...

    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    During the removal of encrustation from marble with 355 nm laser pulses, the effects of the thin liquid layer covering the encrustation are experimentally and numerically investigated. The working mechanism of the liquid layer is analyzed. The two-dimensional model is proposed to simulate the changes of the temperature, liquid content and vapor ...

    Laser melting is one of rapid prototyping techniques. An object can be formed in a short time by heaping up thin layers of molten metal powders. In such a case, a warp is generated in the formed object; thus, the precise shape cannot be obtained. In the present paper, we propos...

    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    Laser marking of metals and plastics is one of the most widespread of all laser materials processing techniques used throughout the industrial sectors. One remaining challenge is the creation of scanner readable marks on highly reflective materials such as aluminium without the aid of a surface coating. In previous work the authors have presented a novel technique employing a high average po...

    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    Metal polymer sandwich structures are gaining in importance, especially in the transport industry where lightweight and high stiffness are particularly attractive. To date joining of these laminates has been limited to riveting, splicing or adhesive bonding, all of which require an overlap joint which is not always desirable. This paper presents a new method where overlapping laser spot welds ar...

    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    The aerospace industry is comprised of a few large manufacturers and a large number of smaller supplier firms that manufacture components used in the production of aircraft. A key challenge for these smaller firms is the need to remain both economically viable and globally competitive. One of the ways in which they have sought to achieve ...

    A System for the Removal of Debris Produced during Laser Micromachining
    Authors:
    Colin Dowding, Loughborough University; Leicestershire Great Britain
    Jonathan Lawrence, Loughborough University; Leicestershire Great Britain
    Presented at ICALEO 2006

    This paper describes an attempt to solve the issue of removing debris produced in the large-area laser micromachining of micron-scale arrayed geometric features in metals, ceramics and polymers. This was achieved by developing a system that not only hypothetically, but practically limited the build up of debris on the laser micromachined surface, thereby increasing the yield rate of the process. It is often undesirable to use mechanical m...
