To accelerate the bone growth around a metallic implant, a layer of bioactive ceramic such as hydroxyapatite (HA) can be applied as a coating on the metal implant. One of the critical factors for successful implantation is that the HA coating must have strong adherence to the metal substrate at the interface. Many coating techniques have been developed over ...$28.00

A new technique called laser spinning is presented in this work. This technique was employed for the synthesis of bioactive fibres. The technique is based in the laser melting of a glass plate under atmospheric conditions at room temperature. A high pressure gas jet is employed to assist the process. The glass plate was ...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2006
Direct laser deposition is a rapid prototyping method which can be used to manufacture near net shape components using powders from their CAD files in one step. The aim of the present work is to produce ideal Ti-6Al-4V scaffold (a supporting structure for growing cells and tissues) using direct laser deposition technique and to study the microstructure and mechanical properties for its applicabilit...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2006
We present a method and apparatus that provides in situ, near real-time evaluation of metallic coatings used as protective barriers for various industrial applications. Identification of the elemental constituents of the coating and substrate is accomplished using the technique of laser plasma spectroscopy, whereby optical emissions from the plasma formed by focusing a high energy pulsed laser onto a part coating or substrate surface uniquely identify the elem...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2006
A camera based feedback controller is designed and implemented to optimize the energy input during the process. This controller eliminates the need and effort to experimentally optimize the process. Moreover this controller automatically determines the required energy input to meet a well-defined criterion for a wide range of speeds, powder mass rates and material combinations. Also, it correct...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2006
This paper presents an experimental investigation on the process dynamics of direct metal deposition. An optical sensing system, including three couple charged device cameras and a two-color pyrometer, is used to monitor molten pool geometry and pool temperature during the deposition process. Molten pool area size and height are obtained by image processing. Auto regressive exogenous models and state space models are implemented to identify the direct metal deposition proces...$28.00

High Speed Fiber Laser Welding for Fuel Cell Components
Authors:
Stanley Ream, EWI; Columbus OH USA
Presented at ICALEO 2006
As energy independence becomes a more pressing concern in the U.S. and other countries, industry and government fuel cell development efforts have gained momentum. There are several leading fuel cell types and hundreds of specific fuel cell designs. Yet, despite the design diversity, there is a common theme that appears in many systems, specifically the need to join, seal, and/or weld thin, stainless steel components at very high production rates. Fuel cell system components such as bi-polar plates, fuel processors, recuperators, and heat exchangers are all comprised o...$28.00
