Complex protective casings and housings are necessary for many applications, including combustion chambers of gas turbines used in aerospace engines. Manufacturing these components from forging and/or casting as a whole is challenging, costly, and time-consuming.
In wire-arc additive manufacturing and hot-wire laser additive manufacturing, wire is fed into a melt pool and melted through the arc or laser process.
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.
Making existing buildings more airtight is critical in reducing the nation's energy consumption and carbon output. Most current methods of locating building leakage sites are disruptive to occupants and none of the methods can measure the flow of individual leakage sites.
Building Science Advisor is a web-based tool that allows users to quickly and reliably evaluate the moisture durability of their building wall designs and select the most energy-efficient and moisture-safe design.
Technologies for optimizing prefab retrofit panel installation using a real-time evaluator is described.
This solid-state thermal switch can significantly increase the functions of the thermal mass in buildings by actively controlling the thermal resistivity of insulation layers to optimize the energy storage and utilization to shed, shift, and shape HVAC loads on demand.
The interface gasket for building envelope is designed to enhance the installation of windows and other objects into building openings.
Adhesive and sealant materials are crucial in construction, automotive, and electronics industries. However, most adhesives fail under stress or environmental conditions like dust, water, or wear.
