Abstract:
A novel manufacturing method for functionally graded component includes a cold sprayed additive manufactured core material and a cold sprayed additive manufactured set of teeth around said core made from another material.
Abstract:
A solid-state method for forming an alloy includes providing a powder that has heterogeneous particles with a ratio, by weight, of an amount of nickel to an amount of a metal. The ratio is selected in accordance with a compositional ratio that can substantially bear a nickel intermetallic precipitate of the nickel and the metal. The heterogeneous particles are then consolidated and thermally treated to interdiffuse the nickel and the metal. The interdiffused nickel and metal are then precipitation treated to precipitate the nickel intermetallic.
Abstract:
A component may be self-monitoring having a sensor assembly located on a surface of a substrate and covered by an encapsulating layer additively manufactured over the sensor assembly and thereby bonded to the substrate. The sensor may be wireless, self-powered, and embedded into the substrate such that it is unobtrusive and may not limit the performance or function of the component.
