Laser fabrication of 3D gelatin scaffolds for the generation of bioartificial tissues Universiteit Gent
End-User Control over Physical User-Interfaces: From Digital Fabrication to Real-Time Adaptability Universiteit Hasselt
Graphical user interfaces are at the core of the majority of computing devices, including WIMP (windows, icons, menus, pointer) interaction styles and touch interactions. The popularity of graphical user interfaces stems from their ability to adapt to a multitude of tasks, such as document editing, messaging, browsing, etc. New tools and technologies also enabled users without a technical background to author these kind of digital interfaces, ...
Introducing Engineering Students to Manufacturing in a Fabrication Laboratory (Fab Lab) KU Leuven
Engineering students most often do not have the opportunity to make a physical prototype of the designs they make on paper or computer. Since 2010, a Fab Lab (Fabrication Laboratory) has been established in Leuven, offering students this extra functionality. A Fab Lab is equipped with several non-conventional manufacturing machines, such as 3D printers, laser cutters, NC milling machine, etc. Many Fab Labs have emerged around the World since the ...
Do liars really remember what they lied upon? The impact of fabrication on memory KU Leuven
The present experiment aimed to examine how fabrication can affect memory. In particular, we examined whether different types of fabrication can lead to different mnemonic effects. A sample of 159 participants watched a video of a robbery and subsequently answered some questions about it. Participants were divided into three conditions: one group was instructed to tell the truth (i.e., truth-telling group), while the other two groups were ...
In silico quantification of 3D thermal gradients and voids during fused filament fabrication deposition to enhance mechanical and dimensional stability Universiteit Gent
Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is one of the most widely used additive manufacturing techniques for polymeric materials. However, the mechanical and dimensional quality of the final printed parts are still deviating from the maximal performance, due to the presence of voids, and incomplete inter- and intralayer bond formation implying suboptimal molecular chain entanglement. The current work puts forward a three-dimensional Ansys Polyflow ...
Performance Evaluation of Alternating Current Square Waveform Submerged Arc Welding as a Candidate for Fabrication of Thick Welds in 2.25Cr-1Mo Heat-Resistant Steel KU Leuven
The paper evaluates the performance of alternating current (AC) square waveform submerged arc welding (SAW) as a candidate technology for manufacturing thick welds for high-pressure vessels. A new mathematical formulation for calculating melting efficiency in square waveform arc welding is presented. The melting efficiency and the heat consumption are presented as a mathematical model of welding parameters, namely welding current, welding speed, ...
Optical solutions for large size-high resolution scaffolds fabrication Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Bioprinting has emerged as a fabrication technique with wide acceptance in the field of tissue engineering due to its flexible 3D fabrication frame-work, high resolution and variety of available biocompatible materials.These capabilities have facilitated tissue engineering in the study and development of regenerative tissue models, through the fabrication of engineered scaffolds with complex pores patterning, pore’s interconnectivity and high ...
Knit-Mycelium Hybrids: Designing and scaling up with bio fabrication systems based on Mycocrete injection in 3D knitted tubular formworks Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This paper investigates the design potential of monolithically grown Mycelium-based Composites (MBCs) focusing on the integration of 3D knitted formworks within the fabrication process. Mycelium has gained attention as a sustainable, biodegradable, construction material with insulating, and self-healing capabilities. While there have been advancements in MBC, challenges remain in terms of structural complexity, stability, and design control at ...
Soft dielectric actuator produced by multi-material fused filament fabrication 3D printing Interuniversitair Micro-Electronica Centrum vzw Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Dielectric elastomer actuators rely on Coulomb forces for their actuation. They are promising candidates when it comes to the manufacture of electrically driven soft and lightweight robotic devices, which can undergo large movement. However, their commercial availability and hence their technological relevance are still rather limited due to several reasons: in-depth material knowhow in terms of electrical and mechanical behavior required; ...
