Working on some build speed optimisation algorithms to save resources and energy in #3Dprinting . Using some prototype mirrors as a test case, from a project with @NARIT_Thailand @mapphub @STFC_Matters @DurhamPhysics @msesheffield

New Paper Friday!!! Check out our new paper on using ML for alloy design. Super proud of Joshua Berry and all his hard work on this. doi.org/10.1002/adem.2023020…

Some lattice reinforcement experiments inspired by metallic microstructure. Trialling reinforced unit cells (like a precipitate) and a warped unit cell (to disrupt slip planes). #3dprinting #AdditiveManufacturing @mapphub @RoyceSheffield @msesheffield

A little side project with @RoyceSheffield. On the (very rare) occasions a build doesn’t work, we are looking at ways to turn scrap aluminium into usable wire. @mapphub @msesheffield #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting #Sustainability

Concluded my interest in tonight’s match after 12 minutes. England can get on with disappointing now.

Some cylinders and basic mirrors, but complex on the inside. Manipulating the microstructure with deliberate voids, that @RoyceSheffield will HIP shut to leave an ideal surface for making a mirror. #AdditiveManufacturing #3DPrinting @mapphub @ukatc @SPIEtweets

A rarity in science. Planned an experiment, ran it, everything worked and we learnt something new. Looking at how HIP treatments can alter diamond turned AM surfaces. @LunchBobs @RoyceSheffield @mapphub

Quite a simple #additivemanufacturing experiment but some satisfying results. Some model validation work using aluminium discs with varying struts. Results cover the full range, from perfect to a few struts breaking to total part failure. @mapphub @RoyceSheffield @msesheffield

No idea what the chants are, but there’s baseball and takoyaki.

Building fairly boring shapes this week but lots of interesting data on the inside. Seeing how non-standard hatch patterns can improve overhangs, surface roughness and thin walls. @RoyceSheffield @mapphub @msesheffield #AdditiveManufacturing #3Dprinting

Revisiting notes from a meeting yesterday… grateful that I, if anything, included too many details.

A busy week of builds with the most untested parts last. Working towards stronger meta-lattices by meshing non-aligned lattices in different ways.

Investigating how to best mesh parts built with different laser parameters (hence the gaps). Plus some bonus overhang samples for a @msesheffield UG project. @mapphub @RoyceSheffield #additivemanufacturing #3dprinting

Some snap-off, pre-mounted weld tracks (234) that just need a quick polish. Tried a few new laser strategies to hopefully make weld track analysis faster and more useful. @RoyceSheffield @mapphub #additivemanufacturing #3Dprinting
