Enabling thermography of highly reflective laser welds using a multi-flash sequence approach Open
A multi-flash thermography approach was developed to enable thermographic inspection of highly reflective samples without the need for an emissivity-altering coating. The multi-flash thermography approach was able to reliably remove reflec…

Achieving brittle-intermetallic-free and high-conductivity aluminum/copper joints using nickel-phosphorus coatings Open
Mechanical degradation due to brittle intermetallic compounds (IMCs) formed at the faying interface is a predominant deficiency in dissimilar metal joints. In copper/aluminum (Cu/Al) joints, additional defects (such as partially-bonded int…

Resistive Joining – A Novel Dissimilar Welding Method for Thin Sheet Metals Open
Next-Generation batteries requires more energy and output power due to the high demands of applications to large-size vehicles, e.g. SUVs and trucks. As a result, multiple dissimilar battery cell tabs are joined together in parallel and ca…

Electrocatalysts: Guided Evolution of Bulk Metallic Glass Nanostructures: A Platform for Designing 3D Electrocatalytic Surfaces (Adv. Mater. 10/2016) Open
On page 1940, A. D. Taylor and co-workers demonstrate nanoporous bicontinuous structures using controlled structural evolution of metallic glass. By using techniques such as dealloying, galvanic replacement, and under-potential deposition,…
