Abstract ; "Nowadays, the additive manufacturing of multifunctional materials is booming. The fused deposition modeling (FDM) process is widely used thanks to the ease with which multimaterial parts can be printed. The main limitation of this process is the mechanical properties of the parts obtained. New continuous-fiber FDM printers significantly improve mechanical properties. Another limitation ...

Abstract : "Yttrium oxide tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) is an inert bioceramic used for many bio-implantable applications that request a high accuracy which is difficult to achieve with the current technologies. Laser machining of hard ceramic is difficult because the interaction of the laser beam with the material can lead to microcracks and surface modifications of the microstructure. ...

"In this paper,the NF E 66-520-5 standard, dedicated to the determination ofthe optimal cutting parameters suitable for ductile material, is applied to the pre-sintered ceramic Y-TZP. The objective of the standard is to calculate the specific cutting energy of the forces created between the chosen tool and material during machining operation. Specific cutting energy is the energy required to remove ...

Abstract : "Manufacturing of advanced ceramic parts exhibiting complex geometries is laborious and expensive. Traditionally, the machining is carried out on a so-called ‘green ceramic’: a compact composed of ceramic powder held with the help of a binder. This difficulty is due not only to the composition of the material, but also to the lack of methods that determine optimal machining parameters. ...

Abstract : "The demand for inert bioceramics is always increasing in the dental field. Yttrium oxide tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) are oxide ceramics which are currently used because of their interesting mechanical properties due to a toughening transformation. Industrially speaking, machining of the ceramic before sintering (green body) is very common because it allows a better productivity ...

Abstract : "This paper deals with the numerical modelling of non-destructive testing of composite parts using active thermography. This method has emerged as a new approach for performing non-destructive testing (NDT) on continuous carbon fibre reinforced thermoplastic polymer (CCFRTP) components, particularly in view of detecting porosity or delamination. In this context, our numerical model has ...

Abstract : "The innovative Green Ceramic Hybrid Machining (GCHM) process sequentially combines milling with a cutting tool (GCM, Green Ceramic Machining) and laser beam machining (GCLBM) of a ceramic material (black Y-TZP in this study) at the green stage mainly to increase productivity, avoid taper angle limitations of laser beam machining, and obtain micro-features. The study focuses on ...

"This paper proposes a portable 3D printed test set-up allowing to realize this transient measurement while ensuring no interaction with the outside world. Moreover the setup proposes a variation of distance to favor or not the interaction of the semiconductor with the ionizing radiation source. The main advantages of the proposed 3D setup is its adaptability to any kind of radiation source geometry ...

"Standards enabling the objective tolerancing and evaluation of dimensional and geometrical performances of additive manufacturing (AM) printers are still missing. The design, printing and measurements of geometrical benchmark test artefacts (GBTA) is the current solution proposed in literature. However, the current GBTA with fixed dimensions cannot cover most of the available printing area of ...
