Machining Characteristics

Diamond-point turning is an efficient technique for machining low-density polystyrene foam, and the surface finish can be substantially improved by grinding. However, both diamond-point turning and grinding tend to tear and fracture cell walls and leave asperities formed by agglomerations of fragmented cell walls. Vibratoming is proving to be an excellent technique to form planar surfaces in polystyrene, and the machining characteristics of vibratoming and diamond-point turning are compared.Our work has demonstrated that proper evaluation of surface structures in low density polystyrene foam requires stereoscopic examinations; tilts of + and − 3 1/2 degrees were used for the stereo pairs. Coating does not seriously distort low-density polystyrene foam. Therefore, the specimens were gold-palladium coated and examined in a Hitachi S-800 FESEM at 5 kV.

AbstractIn vivo bioprinting has recently emerged as a direct fabrication technique to create artificial tissues and medical devices on target sites within the body, enabling advanced clinical strategies. However, existing in vivo bioprinting methods are often limited to applications near the skin or require open surgery for printing on internal organs. Here, we report a ferromagnetic soft catheter robot (FSCR) system capable of in situ computer-controlled bioprinting in a minimally invasive manner based on magnetic actuation. The FSCR is designed by dispersing ferromagnetic particles in a fiber-reinforced polymer matrix. This design results in stable ink extrusion and allows for printing various materials with different rheological properties and functionalities. A superimposed magnetic field drives the FSCR to achieve digitally controlled printing with high accuracy. We demonstrate printing multiple patterns on planar surfaces, and considering the non-planar surface of natural organs, we then develop an in situ printing strategy for curved surfaces and demonstrate minimally invasive in vivo bioprinting of hydrogels in a rat model. Our catheter robot will permit intelligent and minimally invasive bio-fabrication.

AbstractFor certainCr3-dimensional cooperative or competitive vector fieldsF, whereris any positive integer, it is shown that for any nonwandering pointp, every neighborhood ofFin theCrtopology contains a vector field for whichpis periodic, and which agrees withFoutside a given neighborhood ofp. The proof is based on the existence of invariant planar surfaces throughp.

Abstract The article investigates pocket bearings with contoured profiles of exponential forms on both surfaces inside and outside of the step boundary forming hydro-dynamic action surfaces, and develops optimum design data yielding efficient slider bearings with small pockets with higher load capacities than conventional pocket bearings. In the case of a pocket bearings, in addition to the Reynolds equation used for the regions inside and outside the pocket, the continuity equation along the pocket boundary is satisfied to form the complete model of the bearing. The optimum design data includes dimensionless load-, flow-, temperature rise-, power loss-, stiffness-, and the coefficient of friction factors. Incompressible lubricant with temperature dependent viscosity is considered. Detailed study of conventional pocket bearings with planar surfaces is included. Some optimum exponential pocket bearings yield up to 561 percent increase in load capacity as compared to the conventional tapered bearings.

Build Time

Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies have been widely used to fabricate 3D objects quickly and cost-effectively. However, building parts consisting of complex geometries with multiple curvatures can be a challenging process for the traditional AM system whose capability is restricted to planar-layered printing. Using 6-DOF industrial robots for AM overcomes this limitation by allowing materials to deposit on non-planar surfaces with desired tool orientation. In this paper, we present collision-free trajectory planning for printing using non-planar deposition. Trajectory parameters subject to surface curvature are properly controlled to avoid any collision with printing surface. We have implemented our approach by using a 6-DOF robot arm. The complex 3D structures with various curvatures were successfully fabricated, while avoiding any failures in joint movement, holding comparable build time and completing with a satisfactory surface finish.
