Additive Manufacturing of Multimetallic Materials to Achieve Multifunctionality
Leveraging multimaterial directed energy deposition (DED), this work showcases four case studies of metallic multifunctional materials (MFMs). The significant potential of DED to achieve multifunctionalities in metallic materials is demonstrated, providing enlightenment to a wide range of engineering applications unseen in conventional metallic ...

ABSTRACT Purpose Ferritin's iron core exhibits complex magnetic properties, as suggested by magnetometry and Mössbauer spectroscopy, which remain incompletely understood. In particular, the antiferromagnetic inner core could influence the accuracy of iron quantification using MRI and raise concerns about postmortem validation studies involving degraded

Isogeometric Analysis of FGM Plates
Abstract This work presents an isogeometric formulation for the geometrically nonlinear analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) plates. FGM plates are made of a mixture of two components (ceramic and metal) whose volume fractions vary smoothly along the thickness.

Approximating the nearest stable discrete-time system
In this paper, we consider the problem of stabilizing discrete-time linear systems by computing a nearby stable matrix to an unstable one. To do so, we provide a new characterization for the set of stable matrices.

Free vibrations and static analysis of functionally graded sandwich plates with three-dimensional finite elements [PDF]
A three-dimensional modelling of free vibrations and static response of functionally graded material (FGM) sandwich plates is presented. Natural frequencies and associated mode shapes as well as displacements and stresses are determined by using the ...
