Abstract: When designed effectively, support structures play a critical role in quickly dissipating heat and mitigate part distortion without driving up excessive costs within the additive manufacturing metals technique of Laser ...

Abstract: Composed of individual unit cells strategically arranged to achieve a desired function, lattices are a promising solution for laser powder bed fusion support structure design in additive manufacturing. Despite their many ...

Abstract: The structural design and additive manufacturing (AM) of cross-flow heat exchangers (HXs) are studied. A unit-based design framework is proposed to optimize the channel configuration in order to improve the heat exchange ...
