Abstract:

Molding is a simple manufacturing process whereby fluid fills a master tool and then solidifies in the shape of the tool cavity. The precise nature of material flow during molding has long allowed fabrication of plastic components with sizes 1 mm 1 m. Polymer molding with precise critical dimension control could enable scalable, inexpensive production of micro- and nanostructures for functional or lithographic use. This dissertation reports experiments and simulations on molding of polymer micro- and nanostructures at length scales 1 nm 1 mm. The research investigates two main areas: 1)

Abstract:

Powder bed fusion (PBF) is one of seven technology modalities categorized under the term additive manufacturing (AM). Beyond the advantages of fabricating complex geometries and the "tool-less manufacturing" paradigm common to all types of AM, polymer PBF shows potential for significant industrial relevance through exploiting the technique's characteristic powder-filled bed (a.k.a. build piston) to utilize the full printer volume for batch-style production. Although PBF should be a suitable processing technique for all semi-crystalline polymers, the polyamide family currently occupies around 9

Each class of polymer was capable of providing a wide range of cooling rates depending on the product formulation, concentration, temperature, agitation, ageing and contamination. Cooling rates for synthetic quenchants were generally intermediate between those of water and oil. Cont

Composites are widely used in an increasing number of applications in diverse fields. However, most traditional composite materials are difficult to recycle. Because of their enhanced recyclability, thermoplastic single-polymer composites (SPCs), i.e., composites with fiber and matrix made from the same thermoplastic polymer, have attracted much attention in the recent years. High-performance polymer fibers in combination with same polymer matrices would lead to a fully recyclable single polymer composite that has major ecological advantages.

The main objective of the thesis is to study the ISF technology, considering Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) and Two Point Incremental Forming (TPIF) variants, on biocompatible polymers to obtain a real customized cranial implant.

The application of glass fiber reinforced composites has grown rapidly due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, low cost, and chemical resistance.
