Data-Driven Overlapping-Track Profile Modeling in Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing
Published 2024Cold spray additive manufacturing is an emerging solid-state deposition process that enables large-scale components to be manufactured at high-production rates. Control over geometry is important for reducing the development ...Open AccessArticle -
Data-Efficient Neural Network for Track Profile Modelling in Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing
Published 2021Abstract: Cold spray is emerging as an additive manufacturing technique, particularly advantageous when high production rate and large build sizes are in demand. To further accelerate technology’s industrial maturity, the ...Open AccessArticle -
Design and Simulation of a Flexible Bending Actuator for Solar Sail Attitude Control
Published 2021This paper presents the design of a flexible bending actuator using shape memory alloy (SMA) and its integration in attitude control for solar sailing. The SMA actuator has advantages in its power-to-weight ratio and light ...Open AccessArticle -
Entrainment and structure of negatively buoyant jets
Published 2021Turbulent negatively buoyant jets occur when the buoyancy of a jet directly opposes its momentum, and will decelerate until its mean momentum is reduced to zero. Here, the flow reverses direction and, for an axisymmetric ...Open AccessArticle -
Characterising entrainment in fountains and negatively buoyant jets
Published 2022Turbulent fountain flow consists of two distinct stages, the initial ‘negatively buoyant jet’ (NBJ) stage, and the fully developed ‘fountain’ stage. The present study investigates both stages of the flow using particle ...Open AccessArticle
