Direct Writing Unclonable Watermarks with an Electrochemical Jet (2022)
Journal Article
Speidel, A., Bisterov, I., & Clare, A. T. (2022). Direct Writing Unclonable Watermarks with an Electrochemical Jet. Advanced Functional Materials, 32(51), Article 2208116. https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.202208116

Counterfeit parts result in significant losses per annum and are often dangerous, therefore they represent a serious concern for manufacturers and end users alike. Easily written but unclonable watermarks undermine the proposition of the counterfeite... Read More about Direct Writing Unclonable Watermarks with an Electrochemical Jet.

Hydrophobically/oleophilically guarded powder metallurgical structures and liquid impregnation for ice mitigation (2022)
Journal Article
Yang, D., Bao, R., Choi, K. S., Clare, A. T., & Hou, X. (2022). Hydrophobically/oleophilically guarded powder metallurgical structures and liquid impregnation for ice mitigation. Chemical Engineering Journal, 446, Article 137115. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cej.2022.137115

Icing hazards often pose operational and safety challenges. Various surface and coating approaches have been attempted for ice mitigation purposes, but the durability remains an outstanding issue. Inspired by traditional powder metallurgy and slipper... Read More about Hydrophobically/oleophilically guarded powder metallurgical structures and liquid impregnation for ice mitigation.

Stochastic design for additive manufacture of true biomimetic populations (2022)
Journal Article
Groth, J., Magnini, M., Tuck, C., & Clare, A. (2022). Stochastic design for additive manufacture of true biomimetic populations. Additive Manufacturing, 55, Article 102739. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2022.102739

Current biomimetic designs do not incorporate naturally occurring variance. Instead, the same unit cell is repeatedly copied and pasted to create a pattern. Existing stochastic designs use the same randomness for all parameters. However, nature teach... Read More about Stochastic design for additive manufacture of true biomimetic populations.

On the thermomechanical aging of LPBF alloy 718 (2022)
Journal Article
Sanchez, S., Gaspard, G., Hyde, C. J., Ashcroft, I. A., Ravi, G. A., & Clare, A. T. (2022). On the thermomechanical aging of LPBF alloy 718. Materials Science and Engineering: A, 841, Article 142998. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2022.142998

Heat treatment of products post additive manufacture are considered hugely important since the metallurgical condition post process is suboptimal. In the case of nickel-based superalloys, grain size, precipitate distribution and precipitate size are... Read More about On the thermomechanical aging of LPBF alloy 718.
