Geometrical effects on residual stress in selective laser melting (2018)
Journal Article
Parry, L., Ashcroft, I., & Wildman, R. (2019). Geometrical effects on residual stress in selective laser melting. Additive Manufacturing, 25, 166-175. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2018.09.026

Selective laser melting is an increasingly attractive technology for the manufacture of complex and low volume / high value metal parts. However, the inevitable residual stresses that are generated can lead to defects or build failure. Due to the com...

Electrical resistivity of additively manufactured AlSi10Mg for use in electric motors (2018)
Journal Article
Silbernagel, C., Ashcroft, I., Dickens, P., & Galea, M. (2018). Electrical resistivity of additively manufactured AlSi10Mg for use in electric motors. Additive Manufacturing, 21, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2018.03.027

Additive manufacturing (AM) opens up a design freedom beyond the limits of traditional manufacturing techniques. Electrical windings created through AM could lead to more powerful and compact electric motors, but only if the electrical properties of...
