Wire and arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) is a promising method of producing medium- and large-sized aluminum alloy structures, though it faces challenges such as porosity, residual stresses and inconsistent mechanical properties. This study investi...
In response to global environment and fuel efficiency regulations aiming to reduce CO2 emissions, multi-material structures that use lightweight materials are currently being developed to realize the weight reduction of vehicles in automotive manufac...
The present research investigates the effects of different welding techniques, namely traditional metal inert gas (MIG), cold metal transfer (CMT), and fiber laser-MIG hybrid, on the microstructural and mechanical properties of joints between extrude...
One of the main challenges in welding aluminium concerns structural integrity and a significant reduction in mechanical properties in the region adjacent to the weld. Design provisions can result in a drastic reduction, which may exceed 50% of the ba...
Background/Objectives: Trabeculotomy using the Tanito microhook (TMH) is a minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) technique that effectively reduces intraocular pressure (IOP). The optimal incision extent for standalone TMH remains unclear. This...
