Electrically-assisted (EA) forming is a low-cost and high-efficiency method to enhance the formability of materials. In the study, EAF tensile tests are carried out to study the properties of T2 copper foil in an annealed state, and the effect of the...
To solve the edge crack problem of AZ31B magnesium alloy cold rolling, a strong pulsed electric current was introduced to the cold rolling process. The influence of intensity, frequency, width of pulsed electric current and other parameters on edge c...
This paper proposes a novel torque measurement and control technique for cycling-assisted electric bikes (E-bikes) considering various external load conditions. For assisted E-bikes, the electromagnetic torque from the permanent magnet (PM) motor can...
Cu/Nb multilayer composites with a continuous layered structure were fabricated using accumulative roll bonding (ARB). The effects of Joule heating on the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of these composites under electrically assisted ten...
We introduce a single-grain gate-all-around (GAA) Si nanowire (NW) FET using the location-controlled-grain technique and several innovative low-thermal budget processes, including green nanosecond laser crystallization, far-infrared laser annealing,...
A new landing strategy is presented for manned electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles, using a roll maneuver to obtain a trajectory in the horizontal plane. This strategy rejects the altitude surging in the landing process, which is t...
Metal–metal composites represent a particular class of materials showing innovative mechanical and electrical properties. Conventionally, such materials are produced by severely plastically deforming two ductile phases via rolling or extruding, swagi...
