A Review on Cracking in Laser Additive Manufacturing of Nickel‐Based Superalloys: Types, Formation Mechanisms, and Suppression Strategies

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Nickel‐based superalloys (Ni‐based superalloys) have attracted extensive attention in laser additive manufacturing (LAM) due to their capability to directly fabricate complex and high‐performance structural components. However, the rapid melting and solidification inherent to LAM result in intense thermal cycling, which induces high residual ...

Water‐Borne Erosion of Reinforced Polymer Composites: Application to Shallow Offshore Marine Environment

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 4102-4126, 10 March 2026.
Comparison of experimental and model‐predicted erosion rates for carbon fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fibre‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) under low‐velocity (2 m/s) and at varying angles and sand concentrations (0.0, 0.05, 0.4 g/L). The results demonstrate good agreement between experimental data and model predictions across different erosive ...
