TL;DR: In this paper, a novel method of fabricating SMA using a laser-based additive manufacturing technique was reported, where three different compositions of Ni and Ti powders were pre-mixed using ball-milling and a laser based additive manufacturing system was employed to fabricate circular rings and the material properties of fabricated rings were evaluated using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) system and micro-hardness test.

TL;DR: The optimized parameters were found to machine the alloy appropriately with the intact shape memory effect and proved to be highly effective in predicting and optimizing the wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) process parameters.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the laser parameters like wavelength and fluence on the dimensions and form of individual dimples were studied and the results showed that uniform circular shaped dimples with very little spatter can be obtained using low fluence levels at wavelength of 355nm.

TL;DR: In this article, a line patterned TENG has been developed on the PET substrate using continuous-wave fiber laser of wavelength 1064nm, which has enabled the development of consistent architecture with more efficient surface morphology as compared to conventional surface replication and few lithography processes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the shape memory alloys were machined using a wire electric discharge machining process to obtain a shape memory effect similar to that of the starting base material, and a set of optimal non-dominant solutions were presented.
