Laser Melt/Particle Injection Processing; Characterization and Performance of Materials

Abstract

This report summarizes work accomplished in the following task areas for the duration of this contract: a) The development of the Laser Melt/Particle Injection Process as a means to form sound, wear-resistant surfaces on soft metallic substrates; b) The research and development of powder metallurgy processes to further the understanding of particle atomization and to evaluate novel material production; and c) The characterization and testing of high performance metallic, ceramics and composite materials. Keywords: Laser processing, Powder metallurgy, Ceramics, Composite materials, Fracture mechanics.
