Swelling and dissolution mechanisms of natural cellulose fibres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
One of the limitations to the use of cellulose is the difficulty involved in the processing and fabrication because of the specific structure of the fibres. In most cases, cellulose cannot be used in its natural form. It has to be dissolved. The focus of

Multimodal Mechanical Testing of Additively Manufactured Ti6Al4V Lattice Structures: Compression, Bending, and Fatigue

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting
