Using ICME Framework to Develop Predictive Models for Microstructural Performance
Integrated computational materials engineering (ICME) principles can be applied to model thermo-mechanical material behavior in joining and additive manufacturing applications. Demonstrations and examples have been presented in several recent EWI publications.* The ICME framework can also offer a solution approach to modeling microstructural response in similar applications. EWI Principal Engineer Michael Eff and Senior Technology […]

Creating Magnetic Materials for E-mobility Drive Systems Using Resistance-based Sintering
Magnetic materials are essential to electric propulsion systems. Key attributes of these materials include resistivity and grain size. Refining grain size increases magnetic saturation limits, and thus allows for lighter, more compact motor designs. Using powder-based processing is one way to achieve fine grain size, but the main methods for doing so are energy intensive, […]

Resistance-based Sintering Technology: Achieving Efficiency and Energy Savings
Metal-powder sintering is an attractive production technology due to its ability to create near-net shape products from a variety of materials at a relatively low cost. Conventional methods for conducting sintering in high volumes involve pre-compacting green-state powders and then applying heat-based consolidation using furnaces. Conventional sintering methods, however, don’t offer the speed, cost-efficiency, energy […]
