Recently, there has been a growing interest in the field of using 3D-printing technology for electrical machine manufacturing. However, almost research works have been done majorly on the 3D-printing technology of individual working parts for various electrical machines. This research presents a study of design, fabrication and testing of the protopype of permanent magnet generator using 3D-printing technology. The major parts of proposed generator are fabricated though 3D-printed materials. The stator winding of designed generator consists of 12 slots. The stator coil is designed to have 250 turns per slot and 12 pieces of neodymium magnets are used in to generate magnetic field in the rotor core. The prototype generator is tested under different condition; no-load and loaded-test. The experimental have been shown that in the no-load condition, this generator is able to generate output voltage of 3.3-64.5 V, when rotated at speed of 100-2,500 rpm. In the loaded-test, the output voltage and output current are also generated. Furthermore, it can be seen that a proposed generator can generate the output power of 4,245.28 mW, when rotated at speed of 2,500 rpm.

Cushioning and antibacterial packaging are the requirements of the storage and transportation of fruits and vegetables, which are essential for reducing the irreversible quality loss during the process. Herein, the composite of carboxymethyl nanocellulose, glycerin, and acrylamide derivatives acted as the shell and chitosan/AgNPs were immobilized in the core by using coaxial 3D-printing technology. Thus, the 3D-printed cushioning–antibacterial dual-function packaging aerogel with a shell–core structure (CNGA/C–AgNPs) was obtained. The CNGA/C–AgNPs packaging aerogel had good cushioning and resilience performance, and the average compression resilience rate was more than 90%. Although AgNPs was slowly released, CNGA/C–AgNPs packaging aerogel had an obvious antibacterial effect on E. coli and S. aureus. Moreover, the CNGA/C–AgNPs packaging aerogel was biodegradable. Due to the customization capabilities of 3D-printing technology, the prepared packaging aerogel can be adapted to more application scenarios by accurately designing and regulating the microstructure of aerogels, which provides a new idea for the development of food intelligent packaging.

Additive-manufacturing is one of the major pillars of the new industrial revolution and the three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has been highlighted in this scenario. Among the many areas benefited by 3D-printing, the development of electrochemical sensors has appeared in evidence in the last years. One potential application of 3D-printed electrochemical sensors is devoted to forensic chemistry, which demands for portable analytical methods that can provide on-site measurements and thus bring a relevant information in loco. In this context, this review highlights the recent contribution of 3D-printing technology on the development of electrochemical sensors with great promises for on-site analysis in “real-world” forensic scenarios. From the detection of trace explosives, gunshot residues, illicit drugs and chemical threats, to the measurement of adulterants in food and fuels, we show the wide range of applications that 3D-printed electrochemical sensors have been proposed and future demands that can be addressed by such a powerful, affordable, and accessible tool.

In modern world more and more materials with extreme properties are being used: high alloys, high-entropy alloys, nanostructured materials, etc. The extreme properties of these materials make them especially sensitive to hydrogen diffusion. Hydrogen can severely impair their properties and cause failures in structures and machines the material is used in. Nowadays, when structures and components are becoming increasingly complex, the use of 3D printing technology is becoming more widespread. Components made using 3D printing technologies are usually layered, which increase the amount of hydrogen that can diffuse into the material. The amount of hydrogen concentration in 3D printed nickel samples has been determined using vacuum heating method in hydrogen analyzer AV-1. The samples were held at different constant temperatures and the total amount of hydrogen extracted at those temperatures was calculated. A mathematic model was developed to evaluate the amount of hydrogen extracted at a given temperature. The evaluation was then compared to the experiment results, and the validity of the mathematical model and the selected hydrogen activation energies was verified.

The excavation in layered rocks is an issue for a number of geoengineering applications; these kinds of rocks all exhibit transverse isotropic features due to the process of metamorphic differentiation. This paper focuses on providing two methods, i.e., the 3D printing technology and the combined finite-discrete element method, to simulate the anisotropic characteristics of layered rocks. The results showed that both the 3D-printed samples and the FDEM numerical models are considered as a good match, and both revealed that as the inclined angle increased, the UCS of the sample first decreased and then increased, showing a U-shaped pattern. The results of this paper served as a reference to the promotion of the 3D printing technology and the combined finite-discrete element method in the geotechnical engineering field and laboratory test research.

Abstract Background: Tibial plateau fracture is one of the common intra-articular fractures in clinic. And its accurate classification and treatment is a difficult problem for orthopedic surgeons. Our research aims to investigate the application value of 3D printing in the classification and preoperative planning of complex tibial plateau fractures.Methods: 28 cases of complex tibial plateau fractures diagnosed and treated in our hospital from January, 2017 to January, 2019.01 were analyzed. Preoperative spiral CT scan was performed and then DICOM data were input into the computer. We use Mimics to process data. And 3D printing technology was applied to print the 3D model of fracture (1:1). Combined with the 3D printed model, the tibial plateau fractures were subdivided into seven types according to the geometric plane of the tibial plateau. The surgical approach was determined on the 3D printed model. And then simulated operations such as accurate reduction of fracture and selection of plate placement were performed.Results: The reconstructed 3D model of tibial plateau fracture can accurately reflect the direction of fracture displacement and the degree of plateau collapse. Also, it and can help with the preoperative surgical design of tibial plateau fracture. The intraoperative fracture details were basically the same as the 3D printed model. And the fracture surface of the tibial plateau was well improved in all 28 cases.Conclusion: 3D printing technology can be used to guide the classification and preoperative planning of complex tibial plateau fractures.
