Abstract: The effects of substrate temperature on laser focal position and tear-drop morphology in laser internal modification of glass are investigated. A model is derived to predict the shift of the tear-drop at high substrate ...

Abstract: Photopolymerization enables the printing of three-dimensional (3D) objects through successively solidifying liquid photopolymer on two-dimensional (2D) planes. However, such layer-by-layer process significantly limits ...

Abstract: Vibration-assisted nano-impact machining by loose abrasives (VANILA) is a newly developed process based on the atomic force microscope (AFM) platform, where the nanoabrasive (diamond particles) slurry is injected between ...

Abstract: This article is to capture some of the important developments in the rapidly growing areas of laser-based manufacturing and materials processing and also to describe important technological issues pertaining to various ...

Abstract: This paper studies the performance of microgrooved cutting tool in dry orthogonal machining of mild steel (AISI 1045 steel) using advantedge finite element simulation. Microgrooves are designed on the rake face of cemented ...

Abstract: With the invention of chirped pulse amplification for lasers in the mid-1980s, high power ultrafast lasers entered into the world as a disruptive tool, with potential impact on a broad range of application areas. Since ...
