Influence of Testing Temperature on the Mechanical Performance of Brazed Conventionally and Additively Manufactured 316L Stainless Steel Joints

In this work, brazed joints between samples of 316L stainless steel (316LSS) are formed using the Ag155 brazing filler metal. As an additional aspect of the investigation, the joints combine stainless steel formed by conventional processing and by additive ...

3D metal freeform micromanufacturing

Andreas Mortensen, Yves Bellouard, Raphaël Charvet, Fatmah Ebrahim, Cyril Dénéréaz, Léa Deillon, Tao Yang, Enrico Casamenti, Luciano Borasi, Sacha Jérémy Florentin Pollonghini

Despite remarkable progress made in recent years, producing freeform three-dimensional micro-components out of copper, silver or gold and their alloys remains an engineering challenge: current processes are either too slow to be economically viable, or pro ...

Compression testing spherical particles for strength: Theory of the meridian crack test and implementation for microscopic fused quartz

Andreas Mortensen, Goran Zagar, Raphaël Charvet, Cyril Dénéréaz, Václav Pejchal

We show that uniaxial compression testing of spherical particles can give unambiguous access to their tensile strength as governed by surface flaws if one uses pairs of elasto-plastic platens, tailoring their hardness in order to control the relative area ...

Small-scale metal castings, small-scale metal/transparent composite structures and process to produce same

Andreas Mortensen, Yves Bellouard, Raphaël Charvet, Cyril Dénéréaz

The method comprises at least the following steps: - exposing a substrate to focused laser irradiation at a preselected series of locations that trace a subset of the substrate volume that is connected to the surface of the substrate; some subsets of subst ...

Capillarity in pressure infiltration: improvements in characterization of high-temperature systems

Andreas Mortensen, Ludger Weber, Raphaël Charvet, Alain Léger, Willy Dufour, Claudio Bacciarini, Noelia Rojo Calderon

In the pressure infiltration of metal matrix composites, molten metal is injected under external pressure into a porous preform of the reinforcing material. Equilibrium capillary parameters characterizing wetting for this process are summarized in plots of ...

Multiaxial yield behaviour of Al replicated foam

Andreas Mortensen, Raphaël Charvet, Etienne Combaz, Willy Dufour, Claudio Bacciarini

Multiaxial experiments are performed on replicated aluminium foam using a custom-built apparatus. The foam structure is isotropic, and features open monomodal pores 75 mu m in average diameter. Plane stress (sigma(1), sigma(2), sigma(3) = 0) and axisymmetr ...

Yield surface of polyurethane and aluminium replicated foam

Andreas Mortensen, Raphaël Charvet, Etienne Combaz, Willy Dufour, Claudio Bacciarini

It has been proposed in the literature, based on theoretical considerations and on finite-element calculations, that all three stress tensor invariants govern the yield surface of cellular materials. Recent experiments on 75 gm pore size aluminium replicat ...
