An additive manufacturing approach based on electrohydrodynamic printing to fabricate P3HT:PCBM thin films by Zulfikre Esa (19457344)

“…As the annealing temperature and the flow rate were increased, discernible alterations in the PCBM clusters were consequently observed in the blends of the film and the size of the PCBM clusters has decreased by 3% while the distance between them was highly reduced by as much as 82%.…”

Friction stir extrusion of ultra-thin wall biodegradable magnesium alloy tubes — Microstructure and corrosion response by Vasanth C. Shunmugasamy (10474766)

“…For example, tubular devices such as coronary stents manufacture require defect-free, highquality tubes with thin walls (100 μm – 1 mm) as a precursor. Here, we have produced fully consolidated, structurally sound ultra-thin walled (~ 400 μm) AZ31 Mg alloy tubes by friction stir back extrusion (FSE) — a relatively new severe deformation process used typically to manufacture thick metallic tubes and rods. …”
