The heat and fluid flow calculation inside the melt pool in welding processes is a complex challenge. It can be useful to predict defects in the weld seam or to study the influence of some process parameters. Even if the required equations are mastered over the last few years, the cost ... Read More
This study explores the significance of the recoil pressure, Marangoni convection and surface tension effects in selective laser melting of Ti-6Al-4V. A pragmatic two dimensional model with appropriate powder distribution over a substrate of finite thickness has been developed in COMSOL ... Read More
The low dimensional systems show a behavior that is strongly depending on external effects such as the intense non-resonant laser field. The control of electronic and optical properties by means of a laser field lets us to adapt the matter-light interaction to several applications [1]. ... Read More
Efficient mixing and pumping of liquids at the microscale is a technology that is still to be optimized. The combination of an AC electric field with a small temperature gradient leads to a strong electrothermal flow that can be used for multiple purposes. Combining simulations and ... Read More
We present a modeling software package developed at Ostendo Technologies for analysis and design of semiconductor laser and light-emitting diodes. The current database of material parameters supports complete group of III-Nitride alloys used in visible spectrum applications and can be ... Read More
Surface engineering is a key technology used in a wide range of sectors in industry. Among other techniques, it involves adding functionality to a surface. This can be performed by creating a specific topography to a surface using laser texturing. The objective of the work presented in ... Read More
Selective Laser Melting (SLM), like many other additive manufacturing techniques, offers flexibility in design expected to become a disruption to the manufacturing industry. The current cost of SLM process does not favor a try-and-error way of research; which gives more room for ... Read More
Laser dissimilar welding finds their application mainly in the field of tailor-welded blanks (TWB). Tailor-welded blanks combining steel to aluminum alloys are widely used in automotive industry for achieving excellent lightweight structures and at the same time enhancing the functional ...
