In additive manufacturing, choice of process parameters for a given material and geometry can result in porosities in the build volume, which can result in scrap.

A novel method that prevents detachment of an optical fiber from a metal/alloy tube and allows strain measurement up to higher temperatures, about 800 C has been developed. Standard commercial adhesives typically only survive up to about 400 C.

Test facilities to evaluate materials compatibility in hydrogen are abundant for high pressure and low temperature (<100C).

Sensing of additive manufacturing processes promises to facilitate detailed quality inspection at scales that have seldom been seen in traditional manufacturing processes.

High strength, oxidation resistant refractory alloys are difficult to fabricate for commercial use in extreme environments.

The technologies provide a coating method to produce corrosion resistant and electrically conductive coating layer on metallic bipolar plates for hydrogen fuel cell and hydrogen electrolyzer applications.

In manufacturing parts for industry using traditional molds and dies, about 70 percent to 80 percent of the time it takes to create a part is a result of a relatively slow cooling process.

The technology provides a transformational approach to digitally manufacture structural alloys with co- optimized strength and environmental resistance

This technology combines 3D printing and compression molding to produce high-strength, low-porosity composite articles.
