TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN PROCESSING CONDITIONS AND MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE OF THE ADDITIVE FRICTION STIR DEPOSITION PROCESS

Towards Understanding the Relationships between Processing Conditions and Mechanical Performance of the Additive Friction Stir Deposition Process

In this research, we ROSEMARY CONDITIONER explore the preliminary effects of processing conditions using a novel additive manufacturing (AM) process, known as additive friction stir deposition (AFSD), on resulting build direction (BD) mechanical performance.Using the AFSD process, a feasibility study of three AM builds of identical size are created

Deprivation amplification revisited; or, is it always true that poorer places have poorer access to resources for healthy diets and physical activity?

Abstract Background It has commonly been suggested (including by this author) that individual or household deprivation (for example, low income) is amplified by area level deprivation (for example, lack of affordable nutritious food or facilities for physical activity in the neighbourhood).Discussion The idea of deprivation amplification has some i
