The three most common metal-to-metal joints in a lithium-ion battery pack are foil-to-tab, tab-to-tab, and tab-to-bus. All three...

Inconel 718 components produced using additive manufacturing (AM) generally require heat treatment to form strengthening precipitates and optimize the phase fractions of all precipitates. Work done at EWI has been focused on developing a heat treatment procedure specifically for AM-generated IN718 parts. The results of this research are discussed in Optimization of the Post Heat...
